8. Cleo

Adult · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 44 mi from Rock Hill

From her foster "Cleo "mama" as we like to call her. Has really come out of her shell since she isn't having to actively raise her babies anymore. She has become my shadow and follows me around the house all day. She loves to play with her babies and tolerates our 60 lb dog but does not love him by any means, she has zero reaction to our other cat even around her kittens. We have twin toddlers and she just avoids them. She is very slow to accept change but since I won her over she is extremely sweet and affectionate."

Why adopt an adult cat in Rock Hill

An adult cat's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are used to family life.

Grown cats are calmer and need less supervision than kittens, which suits people who work long hours or have young children.
