Meet Shay, the matriarch of the cat rotunda at the Jan Rees-Jones Animal Care Center in Dallas. Shay is a 10-year-old domestic shorthair mix who would very much like to find her forever home as soon as possible. While she is an older cat, Shay is still quite energetic and playful. She has white fur with large patches of black and orange thrown in. She is very and will occupy a lap for about as long as you will let her. Shay doesn’t take very long at all to get to know new people, but a calm home would be great.
A cat tree would be wonderful too. Shay is an FIV-positive cat, which is a completely manageable condition. However, Shay would need to be the only cat in the home or be paired with another cat who is also FIV-positive.
