Nelly's Story

Nelly took a couple of weeks to come out of her shell, but once she did, her personality really began to shine through. She's curious, bold, and social. Her foster family nicknamed her Houdini because she will find her way through any closed door.<br/><br/>She's got a lot of energy and loves a good play session. Balls and hair ties are her thing (wands, not so much). When she's done running around, she'll happily curl up on a lap or cozy up on the couch. She has a cute, unique little meow and is very food motivated. A squeezable treat will win her over instantly! She can love-bite when overstimulated, but disengaging usually does the trick.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a companion with a lot of personality, Nelly is your girl!<br/><br/>Prior to adoption, all cats/kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FeLV, vaccinated, dewormed, deflead, and microchipped.<br/><br/>This cat is in a foster home. More information about this cat and all of our adoptable cats can be found at www.thedancingcat.org/cats. Our adoption application can be found at www.thedancingcat.org/adopt.

Once you fill out our application on our website, our adoption coordinator will be in contact with you as soon as possible. Adopting a cat is an important responsibility.

All adoption applications are reviewed and each applicant is contacted to determine the best fit possible for you and the cat you are interested in. If you are approved for adoption, you will be asked to sign an adoption agreement via email. CAT MEDICAL HISTORY AND HEALTH All of our rescued cats have an initial health check when they are at the shelter. Our goal is to understand the health of each of our cats and provide that information to any potential adopter. However, we cannot guarantee the health of the cat. Therefore we recommend that you take your newly adopted cat to a licensed veterinarian as soon as possible after your adoption. Any known health issues will be disclosed at the time you meet the cat. RECEIVING YOUR NEW FELINE FAMILY MEMBER Upon completion of the adoption agreement (sent via email) and payment of the adoption fee, a Dancing Cat volunteer will deliver your new cat to your home.
