About Betty

Betty is a charming 3-year-old domestic shorthair brown tabby looking for her forever home. Born on January 23, 2020, she was found in Maineville, Ohio, originally thought to be pregnant but it turned out she was just a well-fed girl filled with personality. Once she warms up to you, Betty really shines. She’s very talkative, loves head scratches, and enjoys being acknowledged. If her food bowl looks low, she’ll politely let you know—it’s her quirky way of ensuring her comfort, even when she’s not necessarily hungry. She gets along well with other cats, is comfortable around calm dogs, and is best suited to homes with older, respectful children who can appreciate her boundaries. Betty would thrive in an environment that values affection and routine, and with a little patience, she’ll bring her sweet personality into any family. Ready to meet Betty? She’s eager to start this new chapter of her life with you. All HART cats are vet checked, combo tested, spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and on flea and tick preventative.
