Aunt Annie is a nearly five-year-old black Domestic Shorthair living in Holly, MI, with a gentle and timid soul. Her story began as a young mother, working hard to keep her kittens safe while surviving outdoors. Since arriving at the clinic, Aunt Annie has shown herself to be an incredibly devoted mom, but now she’s searching for a safe, loving home just for her. Still deeply shy, Aunt Annie prefers to keep to herself and spends much of her day hiding. Human affection isn’t something she trusts yet, but with patience and a calm environment, she’s learning that people can be kind. Her next family should be prepared to move at her pace—she needs a quiet home where she won’t be rushed, and her boundaries will be respected. Aunt Annie gets along with other cats but does not get along with dogs. She’s fully litter box trained and has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on her vaccinations. All her necessary vet care has been given, but like any animal, there is always a bit of unpredictability with health. If you value quiet companionship and are ready to give a cat lots of space to bloom, Aunt Annie will thrive with you. Last but not least, she’s an Aquarius, so you may discover an independent streak underneath all that caution. Every animal handles change differently—Aunt Annie will need her new person to introduce her to new spaces and animals slowly, letting her settle in one area at a time. Ready to fall in love?
