Marbles

Marbles is a beautiful 9-year-old spayed tortoiseshell looking for her person. She's spent her whole life as an indoor cat and thrives with calm, one-on-one companionship. Loyal, independent, and quietly devoted — once Marbles chooses you, you're her favorite human.

She'd do best in a quieter home, either as an only cat or with a laid-back companion. She's healthy, fully vaccinated, and spayed.

We're relocating out of state to a home that doesn't allow pets, and it breaks our hearts to part with her. We're hoping to find someone who will give her the steady, loving attention she deserves.

Houston area. The right home matters more than anything. We'd also love to pass along everything we have — including a cat staircase perch, cat condos, litter supplies, and additional cat care items.
