About Sage

Meet Sage. Sage had a rough start—adopted out with her sister, only to be returned when the pairing didn’t work out. She’s shy by nature but has gradually come out of her shell and now enjoys pets, especially when she’s in her safe spot. In recent weeks, she’s been actively seeking affection and doesn’t resist attention the way she once did. With treats as an extra incentive, she’ll gladly soak up gentle love. Sage gets along with other cats and her best friend is D.G., so consider adopting them together if you have room in your heart. She’s come so far and really deserves a safe, steady home that will nurture her confidence. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
