About Socks

Meet Socks, a lovely 2-year-old dilute tortoiseshell with bright white paws that perfectly fit her name. She recently lost her longtime home and is still finding her feet in new surroundings, a little cautious but clearly hoping for some stability again. Socks is looking for a quiet, indoor place where she can relax and decide for herself when she is ready to open up. Older kids are ideal for her—they know when to give a cat space. Socks gets along nicely with other cats, adding potential for a multi-cat home. Dogs are still an unknown, but her gentle nature suggests patience may help if you have one. With time, Socks will settle in and reward her adopter with steady companionship. Come meet Socks and help her find her second chance at a loving home. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
