Story
Mrs. Lovett is a stunning, spirited girl with a personality as vibrant as her gorgeous looks! Life hasn’t always been easy for her, but she’s working hard to learn trust and show off her true, loving nature. Beneath her diva-like charm lies a sweet cat with a good heart, just waiting for the right person to bring out the best in her. Though the kennel environment can sometimes leave her feeling a bit frustrated, Mrs. Lovett is making wonderful progress every day. She adores treats (a sure way to win her over!) and enjoys being petted—though she appreciates a little personal space once in a while. She’s not just feisty; she’s independent and knows what she wants, and that’s what makes her so special. Mrs. Lovett would truly blossom in a calm, loving home where she can explore, relax, and let her unique personality shine at her own pace. If you have a soft spot for cats with a dash of sass and a ton of potential, Mrs. Lovett might just be your perfect match.

Story
*Eva is currently living in a foster home, so if you would like to meet her please let us know, and we will arrange a time for her to come to the shelter. Eva is a curious little kitten with a gentle spirit, who is still trying to figure out humans. While she’s still cautious, Eva is incredibly curious about the world around her; with the help of her foster cat siblings, she is learning from that being in a home is pretty great. She is becoming braver each day and challenging herself to new experiences. She is slowly learning her foster mom isn't that scary as long as she has a treat nearby. Eva enjoys spending her days looking out the windows watching the birds, wrestling with her foster siblings, finding the best napping spots, and discovering new toys to play with each day. Eva would thrive in a calm, patient home where she could come out of her shell at her own pace. She would love a home with her own cat siblings that she can learn from and grow up with. She is comfortable with small dogs who respect cats space and boundaries. She’s looking for a family who understands that she needs time and space to feel comfortable and confident. With love and encouragement, Eva will blossom into a wonderful companion, but she’ll need someone who respects her boundaries and allows her to take things one step at a time. If you have the patience and quiet environment to help Eva grow into the loving, confident cat she’s meant to be, she could be the perfect addition to your home. If you are interested in learning more about Eva, please call 812-988-7362 or submit an adoption application at the link below. After the application is received, an adoption counselor can reach out to you directly. https://www.bchumane.org/adoption-application/ *All cats will be neutered, vaccinated with age-appropriate vaccines, FELV tested, current on parasite prevention and microchipped.
