About Emmett

Chester is a cheeto-orange boy who is looking for a home with his bonded friend Emmett. He is a bit shy but warming up to be a sweet and affectionate boy! To help facilitate adoptions we adopt only within a 200 mile radius of Lincoln, Nebraska and we cannot ship cats.

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

10°F to 35°F

Cold and windy with wind chill that can make temperatures feel well below zero on the open plains. Insulated coats and booties are essential for pets during walks, and outdoor time should be brief on the harshest days. Keep antifreeze stored safely, as spills in garages are a common winter hazard for pets.

Spring

30°F to 68°F

Severe thunderstorms and tornado risk increase from March through May. Have a pet-safe storm shelter plan and ensure your pet is microchipped with current information. Between storms, the trail system comes alive with pleasant walking conditions as temperatures warm into the 60s.
