About Ember

Click apply to start the adoption process. Ember is a truly loving and affectionate cat who has shown incredible resilience. After being abandoned with her five-week-old kittens behind a mall, Ember found an ingenious way to keep her babies safe by sheltering them in a storm drain, protecting them from coyotes until rescue arrived. She has a stunning tortoiseshell coat accented with orange tabby swirls, making her just as beautiful as she is sweet. Ember is now ready to find a family of her own and reward them with endless cuddles and affection. Ember has been diagnosed with diabetes and requires insulin injections twice daily to stay healthy. The extra care she needs is so worth it when she snuggles up close and purrs with gratitude. She has been spayed and is up-to-date on core vaccinations, de-worming, flea treatments, FIV/FELV testing, and is microchipped for your peace of mind. Ember can't wait to meet the caring adopter who will give her the loving forever home she deserves. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
