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.

Spring arrives slowly in West Michigan with cool lake breezes delaying warming. Trails can be muddy from snowmelt through April. By May, the riverside trails become ideal for walks as the landscape greens up.

Pleasant summers with comfortable temperatures and occasional hot spells. Lake Michigan beaches are a wonderful option for water-loving dogs. Watch for rip currents at the lakeshore and keep pets leashed near dunes.
