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

25°F to 42°F

Dec – Feb

Louisville winters bring cold temperatures with occasional ice and snow. The Ohio River valley can trap cold, damp air that feels colder than the thermometer reads. Protect your pet’s paws from salt on sidewalks and keep walks shorter on the coldest days.

Spring

38°F to 72°F

Mar – May

Spring brings blooming dogwoods and warming temperatures along Cherokee Park’s scenic loop. Allergies are common for both pets and owners in the Ohio River valley. Watch for spring storms and have indoor activities ready for rainy days.

Summer

65°F to 90°F

Jun – Aug

Hot, humid summers in the Ohio River valley make heat feel more intense for pets. Schedule walks for early morning or evening and carry water on every outing. The Louisville Loop trail system offers shaded sections that provide some relief from the heat.

Fall

42°F to 75°F
