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

15°F to 42°F

Dec – Feb

Colorado Springs winters bring cold spells and snow, but sunny days often warm quickly at this altitude. The strong UV exposure at 6,035 feet means light-skinned pets may need sun protection even in winter. Garden of the Gods trails are accessible year-round with proper gear.

Spring

28°F to 62°F

Mar – May

Spring weather is unpredictable, with possible snowstorms one day and warm sunshine the next. Carry extra water on hikes as pets dehydrate faster at altitude. Palmer Park and North Cheyenne Canyon Park offer beautiful spring hiking as wildflowers emerge.

Summer

55°F to 88°F

Jun – Aug

Pleasant, dry summers are perfect for mountain trails and outdoor adventures. Watch for afternoon lightning storms and keep pets off exposed ridges during thunderstorms. Carry extra water as the altitude and dry air cause faster dehydration.
