Callie

Meet Callie, a charming and independent ten-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Shorthair from Mount Washington, KY, whose personality is as bold as the beautiful black and orange on her sleek coat! At a petite 8 pounds, this tortie may be small in size, but she carries herself with the confidence of a cat who knows exactly what she wants.

Callie enjoys the best of both worlds—she’s content spending most of her time indoors, but she absolutely loves her outdoor adventures. Whether she’s playfully chasing squirrels and birds or just basking in the sunshine, she finds joy in the little things. And don’t be surprised if you catch her “agitating” the local wildlife from a window—Callie takes great pride in keeping a watchful eye (and a little mischief) over her territory!

While she enjoys human attention, she prefers it in short doses—affection on her terms is her motto. She’s not a clingy cat, making her the perfect companion for someone who appreciates a more independent feline friend. But when she does decide it’s time for pets, her presence is as comforting as a warm cup of tea on a rainy day. Watching her dash across the house or yard is one of her most endearing quirks—there’s something about the way she runs that brings a smile to anyone lucky enough to witness it!

Callie thrives as the queen of her domain and would prefer to be the only cat in the household. She can be timid around other felines and truly shines when she has all the space (and attention) to herself. She’s litter-trained, spayed, and up-to-date on vaccinations, making her ready to settle into a new home where she’ll continue to be cared for and loved.

If you’re looking for a loyal, low-maintenance companion who enjoys a little adventure and a lot of personality, Callie might just be the perfect match for you. Could she be the feline queen your home has been missing?

For adoption inquiries, reach out and give Callie her next loving home!
