About Evangeline

Evangeline has been waiting in the shelter for nearly two years, and you can feel that sense of longing in her every move. She’s got a dilute calico coat and an attitude as colorful as her fur—equal parts sass and charm. Evangeline knows her own mind. Sometimes she’s bold, sometimes a bit bossy, but when she’s in the mood for love, there’s no stopping her. She’ll march over for pets, climb right into your lap, and let you know if you dare stop before she’s satisfied. Don’t be put off by her confident streak; underneath it all, she’s got a soft spot and just wants a place—and a person—of her own. Evangeline does not get along with dogs, and she’s happiest as the only pet, or possibly with a calm cat who gives her space. Her ideal home is a quiet, adult setting where her quirks and affection will be appreciated. Spend a little time with Evangeline, and you’ll see—her personality lights up the room, and she’s just waiting for someone to see past the tough act to the big-hearted friend she can be.
