Coretta's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi... I’m Coretta. I’m named after Coretta Scott King, and like her, I tend to stay in the background — calm, observant, and quietly present. I’m not the first one to run up and greet you, and I don’t make a big fuss when someone new walks in. I prefer to watch from a safe spot until I’m sure everything feels right.<br/><br/>But once I know you’re kind, something in me melts. A gentle voice, a slow blink, a soft hand reaching out — that’s all it takes for me to step forward. And if you stroke my cheeks or run your hand over my head, I close my eyes and lean in like I’ve been waiting for that moment all day.<br/><br/>I’m a shy girl, but I have a warm heart. I just like to give it at my own pace. If you’re patient and gentle, I’ll become your quiet little shadow, happy to share peaceful moments and soft purrs.<br/><br/>Estimated Birthdate: 1/16/24<br/><br/>Likes: Soft voices and gentle pets<br/><br/>Dislikes: Lots of commotion<br/><br/>To schedule a meet/greet with this pawsome kitty, we recommend that you complete a Pre-Adoption Application which is available here: https://www.shelteringhands.org/adoptionapplication.<br/><br/>For additional information, email our Adoptions Team at adoptions@shelteringhands.org. Once applications are approved the Adoptions Team will coordinate the best way for you to get your new furry family member and bring them home.<br/><br/>Learn more about Sheltering Hands visit our website at https://www.shelteringhands.org.
