About Domestic Short Hair Cats

Domestic Short Hairs are the most common cats found in shelters and are not a specific breed but rather a wonderfully diverse mix of feline genetics. Each one is unique, with their own blend of colors, patterns, and temperaments. They're adaptable, low-maintenance, and full of character.

Adopting a Domestic Short Hair means giving a home to a cat who truly needs one. These cats are the backbone of shelter populations and make endlessly rewarding companions. Their easy-care short coats and adaptable natures make them ideal for first-time and experienced cat owners alike.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

20°F to 42°F

Dec – Feb

Cold with regular snowfall, but the dry air and sunshine make winter more pleasant than the wet west side of Oregon. Many trails remain accessible with snowshoes or on packed snow. Dress pets warmly for sub-freezing mornings.

Spring

28°F to 58°F

Mar – May

Snowmelt is gradual, and higher-elevation trails may not open until late May or June. The Deschutes River trail through town dries out first. Spring can bring unpredictable weather with sunny warm days followed by snow.

Summer

45°F to 82°F

Jun – Aug

Dry, sunny summers with cool mornings are ideal for hiking. Wildfire smoke from surrounding forests can occasionally degrade air quality in August. The Deschutes River provides cooling on hot days, but watch for strong currents.
