American Shorthair

**Discounted adoption fee of $0 due to generous donor!
**Updated 11/18/08: I am sad to say I am still in foster care going on 12 months now. They are good to me here, but I really want my own, permanent home! I realize I'm not very photogenic, but I am cuter in person and lovable. Don't I deserve a chance? No one has even inquired about me. I am afraid of dogs so I don't want to have to go to the Petco condos because there are dogs that come in there, so i'm told. I would love a home for the holidays!! I would be an EXCELLENT companion, especially to a retired type of person... I am calm and just am grateful to be pet and fed. Please someone bring me home! If you have any specific questions, email my foster mom, Jen at lott@zoominternet.net Hi, I'm Shawney. I am currently in foster care after being pulled from a kill shelter. I am a bit sad that my previous owner had to relinquish me and don't quite understand. Foster mom says my paper states I was surrendered due to my owner's health problems. The shelter was going to euthanize me due to age since my owner stated I was 12. I received good news when I found out I was being rescued and also when the vet estimated my age to be 7-8 years! What girl doesn't like to be told she's younger? I am a sweet girl, but a bit shy at first. After a day or so, I will learn your voice and come running for a snuggle when I hear you call me. I am a big girl, around 11 pounds. I am fully litter trained. I love people and like other cats. I am absolutely terrified of both the sight and sound of dogs. Please don't take me home if you have one. I must remain indoors due to my fear of dogs. I would really appreciate a home with a new owner to love. Please contact our cat coordinator, Kathy, at: navado@aol.com and take me to my forever home soon! *Please adopt Shawney. She has been a shelter cat for way too long. She is too sweet to be homeless.
