About Demi

Demi came to the rescue from a difficult hoarding situation in Carbondale and has been here since October. At first, she kept her distance and was shy with staff, but she shows her real personality when she's with other cats in the community room. It took time and patience to build her health back up—she arrived emaciated and weak, but she’s now healthy, bright-eyed, and full of life. Demi has really grown into herself during her time here, gaining confidence and making the most of her second chance. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
