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

48°F to 68°F

Dec – Feb

LA winters are ideal for Labrador Retrievers. The mild temperatures suit their double coat perfectly. Griffith Park and Runyon Canyon hikes are great for burning off a Lab’s high energy.

Spring

52°F to 72°F

Mar – May

Labs shed heavily in spring, so brush frequently. Coastal trails in Malibu are perfect for exercise, and Labs love splashing at dog-friendly beaches in Long Beach and Huntington.

Summer

65°F to 85°F

Jun – Aug

Inland valleys can exceed 100°F, which overheats Labrador Retrievers fast despite their love of activity. Stick to coastal areas or early morning walks. Wildfire smoke can also compromise their respiratory health.

Fall

58°F to 80°F
