Valencia

My story

Beautiful classic orange tabby Valencia was extremely friendly and affectionate when she first arrived at the shelter. Sadly, everything soon went wrong, and she is only now beginning to warm up to people again. Valencia is part of a whole big family of fluffy orange or brown tabby cats with much too similar features because they share too many genes. Subsequent generations were likely doomed from the start.  Valencia was heavily pregnant and went into labor not long after being settled in a cozy bed. Tragically, none of the kittens who were delivered alive survived more than a couple of days and poor Valencia had to be rushed to emergency surgery. The cat who came back to the shelter wanted nothing to do with people. She loves the rest of her family, is cautiously starting to join playtime, and tolerates the occasional pet, but still spends a lot of time hanging back or glaring suspiciously. Will you be the one to coax out the sweet girl under the growls again?    Valencia was born approximately April of 2023. She is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. As always, cat/kitten adoptions are free will donation to approved applicants. ****The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org**** July 5, 2025, 4:40 pm
