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

46°F to 66°F

Dec – Feb

Mild temperatures with occasional rain make winter easy for maintaining outdoor pet routines. The city’s well-maintained trail system drains quickly after storms. Cool mornings may warrant a light layer for small breeds, but afternoons are typically sunny and comfortable.

Spring

50°F to 73°F

Mar – May

Perfect weather for exploring Irvine’s extensive open spaces and community parks with your pet. Wildflowers bloom in the preserved natural areas, creating scenic walking routes. Pollen counts rise, so monitor pets with seasonal allergies for signs of discomfort.

Summer

62°F to 85°F

Jun – Aug

The coastal marine layer keeps mornings cool, but afternoons can warm up, especially inland. Take advantage of the morning fog window for comfortable walks. Ample shade trees in Irvine’s planned green spaces help keep outdoor time safe even on warmer days.
