About Hope

Meet Hope, a lovely young cat eager to find her forever home. Hope is a 1-year-old FIP survivor who has spent her life in foster care. Though she may be a bit shy at first, her sweet and playful nature emerges once she feels comfortable. Expect her to roll over playfully for pets, and don’t be surprised if she gently nudges your hand for attention if you take too long to respond! Hope has some unique features thanks to her journey; she has two different-colored eyes and has overcome the removal of her teeth with remarkable grace. This doesn't affect her appetite at all—she enjoys both wet and dry food like any other cat. Despite her past, Hope is full of love to give. With patience and affection, she’ll reward you with purring cuddles and head butts. This little girl is ready to be cherished; could she be the companion you’ve been searching for? If you're interested in adding Hope to your family, please reach out via email or fill out our Adoption Application. Applications are processed in the order received. Let’s make Hope’s dreams come true!
