Shawnee's Story

Lap Cat Alert! Meet Shawnee – Your Personal Blanket with a Purr Looking for a mellow, loving companion who’s equal parts cat and cozy throw blanket? Say hello to Shawnee, a two-year-old sweetheart with the soul of a wise old lady wrapped in a young cat’s body. Shawnee was rescued from a hoarding situation, but you’d never guess it—she’s bounced back with grace and is now all about the simple joys: soft beds, warm sunbeams, and quiet cuddles. This gentle girl has a soft, soothing purr and a charming little voice—she’s always ready for a friendly chat and some good company. Her foster mom says it best: “She’s an easy foster—so sweet. You sit down and she comes right over, ready for snuggles and love.” Whether you're working from home or winding down with a book, Shawnee is the ultimate lap cat—always ready to settle in and stay close. Shawnee is FIV+, but don’t let that intimidate you. It doesn’t require medication or special care—it just means her immune system needs a little extra love. As an indoor cat, she’s at low risk and ready to live a full, happy life. If your perfect day includes a warm cuddle buddy, quiet companionship, and the occasional cat conversation, Shawnee is your girl. Bring her home and discover the joy of a soft, steady presence in your life. Shawnee is currently in a foster home. If you are interested in meeting her, please send a message here, or email adopt@ahsem.org. Adoption fees are as follows: $155 for a single cat or kitten, $195 for a pair of cats or kittens. When adopting a cat from AHSEM the adoption includes spay or neuter surgery, age appropriate core vaccines, microchipping, combo tested (for FIV/FeLV), and basic wellness care including deworming and flea treatment.

Animal House of South East Michigan, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

When adopting a cat from AHSEM the adoption includes spay or neuter surgery, age appropriate core vaccines, microchipping, combo tested (for FIV/FeLV), and basic wellness care including deworming and flea treatment. Our adoption fees are as follows: $155 for a single cat or kitten $195 for a pair of cats or kittens Please note that we do not do same day adoptions and all adoption fees are non-refundable. AHSEM treats every adoption as "foster to adopt" This means that the first two weeks in which you have the cat is the "foster period." We do our best to ensure the right match for all involved and want to give the cat(s) time to decompress and adapt to their new environment. However, we realize sometimes things don't work out as expected. Therefore, during that two-week period, if something doesn’t work out you can bring the cat back. We are also flexible if more time is needed to determine if its the right fit. We will always take our cats back even after the "foster to adopt" period. We would hate to see them end up at a kill shelter, abandoned, or any other unsafe situation.
