KITTY's Story

My name is Kitty and I am a tuxedo & black domestic shorthair. I am a spayed female and I am 3 years old. I am here because I was given up by my owner on 06/19/2026 because they were moving to a home that didn't allow pets. They were my family for just under 1 year. I am used to staying inside during the day and inside during the night. I am a good kitty who uses the litterbox! I am a high energy cat and I can live with an owner with no prior pet owning experience. I can be good with men, women, and children. I can do well with dogs, but I prefer to be around smaller, calmer dogs. My owner hadn't had me around cats before, but the shelter does not think it would be an issue based on my response to seeing other cats at the shelter.
