About Melba

Melba is a gentle and sweet cat looking for a caring home. He arrived at the shelter through a community member and is ready for adoption. While Melba can be a bit shy in new environments, he opens up into a playful companion with a little patience and trust. He has a fondness for treats, especially crunchy ones and tube treats. Due to his timid nature, Melba would thrive in a quieter setting, making a home without children under six ideal for him. He has been neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, so he’s fully prepared for his new life. If you're willing to give Melba the extra love and time he deserves, visit SDHS to learn more about him.
