Sassy

Meet Sassy

This sensitive and shy lady is Sassy, a 13 year old cat looking for a new home. Sassy can be really worried when interacting with new people or environments, and she’s been through some scary transitions recently, so she’s finding shelter life to be overwhelming. She’s hoping to go to a lower-traffic home where she can work on adjusting and building confidence at her own pace. Because she’s fearful, Sassy will do best with a family able to practice petting consent – meaning, letting her be the one to initiate interactions, and offering breaks when petting or grooming to ensure she’s still opting in.

Senior cats are often overlooked due to their age – while kittens and young adults cats are often adopted quickly, many of our senior cats wait longer to find their perfect match. We think Sassy deserves the best retirement home, and adopting a senior can be extremely rewarding. They are extra grateful…and so are we.

If you’re looking to open your home up to a shy kiddo who’s likely to need a gentler start, then come on down to chat with us about Sassy!

Stop by our Cape Cod Adoption Center to meet Sassy. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 1pm-4pm - no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available pets.
