About Delphine

Meet Delphine, the timid little girl who deserves to feel safe at last. Born on April 26, 2026, Delphine experienced a tragic loss early in life when her mother and one of her siblings were taken from her by a coyote. This heartbreaking event left her and her surviving siblings to navigate a world that now feels uncertain and scary. Delphine is particularly shy and requires a safe, supportive environment to blossom. She finds comfort in the presence of other cats, and a friendly feline companion is essential for her in her forever home. Alternatively, she can be adopted alongside one of her siblings. She is best suited for homes with older children who understand her need for patience and gentleness. Though she may initially hide and take small steps towards trust, every little bit of progress matters for Delphine. She deserves more than just survival; she needs a quiet home where she can learn what it feels like to be safe, loved, and truly at home. With the right human companion, Delphine will grow into the sweet, affectionate cat she was always meant to be. Delphine is fully vaccinated, tested negative for FELV/FIV, neutered, dewormed, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $240. Due to her special needs, online applications will not be accepted. Delphine is currently located at our PetSmart Adoption center at 16257 N. Scottsdale Rd. Ready to welcome Delphine into your heart and home? Apply today!
