About Phoenicia

Phoenicia came to us after her previous owner was hospitalized and could no longer look after her. She has a gentle nature and shows affection, but she’s still working through some understandable nervousness. Phoenicia would be most comfortable in a calm, indoor-only home with other cats and older children who know how to give her space if she needs it. She isn’t suited to dogs or very young kids, but she has a sweet way about her and just needs stability and patience to help her blossom. Click apply to start the adoption process.
