About Working Cat Reid

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.

Adopting in Tacoma, WA

Tacoma's stunning Puget Sound views and revitalized waterfront make it a wonderful city for pet adoption. Local shelters and Pierce County rescue groups have many animals ready for loving homes in this city with real character.

With Point Defiance Park - one of the largest urban parks in the country - waterfront trails, and a creative community that embraces pets, Tacoma offers adopted animals a beautiful Pacific Northwest life.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

35°F to 46°F

Dec – Feb

Mild temperatures but persistent rain and overcast skies define Tacoma winters. A waterproof jacket for your pet and rain gear for yourself are essential for daily walks. Point Defiance Park remains beautiful even in winter, and the forest canopy provides some shelter from rain on trail walks.

Spring

38°F to 60°F

Mar – May

Rain gradually decreases and temperatures warm, bringing the Pacific Northwest to life. The waterfront trails become increasingly pleasant as sunshine returns. Muddy trail conditions persist into April, so plan for post-walk paw cleaning after forest walks.

Summer

52°F to 78°F

Jun – Aug

Dry, sunny days with comfortable temperatures make summer the best season for outdoor pet activities. Point Defiance Park and the waterfront trails are at their absolute best during these months. The cool Puget Sound climate means heat stress is rarely a concern for pets.
