Heather, Domestic Shorthair For Adoption In Stamford, Connecticut

Description + Description -

Heather — A Gentle Soul Seeking a Quiet Place to Land DOB: 11/13/24 Heather is a sweet, soft-hearted young cat who has already overcome a tough start after being found on the streets with an infected gash on her back. She’s healed beautifully, and her gentle personality is beginning to shine. Heather seeks comfort from people—hold out your hand and she’ll lean in, quietly soaking up affection. Once she feels safe, she enjoys belly rubs and getting her luxurious, silky fur brushed. Overwhelmed by the noise of boarding life, Heather would thrive in a calm, predictable home with patient humans who let her set the pace. She doesn’t appear to be a fan of other cats, so she would probably be happiest as the only cat. This tender girl will continue to blossom into a loving companion. If you’d like to meet Heather, visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application. Adopters should live within 45 miles of Stamford, CT.Adoption processIf you are interested in meeting one of our cats, please fill out an online application as completely as possible at www.fofct.org The adoption fee for cats over 1 year old is $150.

Like the domestic long-haired cat, this is not a breed, but a non-breed classification of mixed-breed cats. Domestic cat (Felis catus) A domestic short-haired cat is a cat of mixed ancestry—thus not belonging to any particular recognized cat breed—possessing a coat of short fur. In British English, they are often referred to as moggies. Domestic short-haired cats should not be confused with the British Shorthair, American Shorthair, or other standardized breeds with Shorthair names, which are breeds recognized by various registries. Domestic short-haireds are the most common cat in the United States, accounting for around 90–95% of their number. Other generic terms include house cat and alley cat (the latter may be used more specifically to refer to feral specimens). The term tabby cat technically refers to a coat pattern, but is also often used as a general term for cats of this sort.
