Lily showed up just when everything was about to change: pregnant and abandoned, she arrived at the shelter days before giving birth. In the comfort of safety, she raised her litter—one son and three daughters—each named for the season that welcomed them. Lily herself stands out with her striking calico pattern, pure white chest and legs, and golden eyes. She’s got that pink button nose that always looks a little curious. Friendly, but deeply timid, Lily prefers a calm environment. She really comes out of her shell when it’s just adults around. A house with lots of bustle or young kids isn’t her match; she’s happiest in quieter adult homes. Lily doesn’t get along with dogs or children. If you live in Orange County or close by, an application includes a vet reference and a home visit. Start Lily’s next chapter somewhere peaceful—she’s already done the hard part.
