About Lily

Lovely Lily is on our waitlist, but she’d thrive best in a loving home instead of the sanctuary. At 6 years old, this Domestic Short Hair, fondly known as “lil bean” or “lil baby,” carries a timid heart. She flinches at loud noises and will vanish at the sight of strangers. Gaining her trust takes time, but once you earn it, she’ll be by your side forever. She prefers affection on her own terms, so approach her gently. When she feels comfortable, she’ll curl up on your chest—her favorite spot. Lily does well with other cats, given a proper introduction, but she isn't a fan of dogs. If you can provide a safe haven for this scaredy-cat, she will reward you with loyalty and love. Ready to give Lily the forever home she longs for? Apply now!
