My story

Penelope is a resilient feral cat who is currently seeking a safe and nurturing outdoor home where she can roam freely and do what comes naturally to her—helping to manage the rodent population in the area. This independent spirit has a strong instinct for survival, which means she is likely to keep her distance from humans at first. She has learned to be wary of people and prefers to observe from afar, but with patience and understanding, she may slowly come to appreciate your presence. To ensure her safety and comfort, it is crucial that her new outdoor home includes a secure shelter. This shelter will serve as a refuge for her, offering protection not only from inclement weather conditions—such as rain, snow, and extreme heat—but also from potential predators that may threaten her well-being. A warm and safe space will allow her to rest and feel secure while she transitions into her new environment. We highly encourage prospective adopters to consider bringing home not just one, but two or more feral cats like Penelope. By adopting multiple cats, you can create a supportive and protective environment where they can rely on each other for companionship and security. This social dynamic can be incredibly beneficial for them, as feral cats often thrive in the company of their own kind. ##2397675##

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Penelope, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
