Dorothy has come a long way from her rough start on 3rd Street in Albany. After surviving on her own following the demolition of her former home, she faced another hurdle—a tail injury that meant she had to lose her tail. That hasn’t slowed her down one bit. Dorothy has adjusted to shelter life and now lives safely among other cats, keeping to herself most of the time and choosing a quiet corner to take it all in. She’s found comfort in the simple pleasures: a soft spot to rest, a safe routine, and gentle affection from patient humans. Dorothy coexists peacefully with other cats but generally prefers solitude, observing rather than joining in the center of the action. Over time, she’s warmed up to people and will lean into gentle pets, though she’ll always let you know her boundaries. Dorothy needs a calm home and would do best with someone experienced with shy cats who can offer her consistency and respect for her space. Born September 5th, Dorothy is a strong and steady Virgo, finding beauty in small routines. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
