About Dumplin

Meet Dumplin! This beautiful lady is just over 4 years old and curvy, weighing in at just under 16 pounds. She was adopted as a tiny kitten but returned in the summer of 2025 due to a change in her owner's circumstances. Dumplin found a new home in August 2025, but once again, she was returned after struggling to adjust to a baby in the household. Dumplin gets along well with small dogs, as long as they are respectful of her space. She's never lived with other cats, so it's unclear how she would do in that situation. She’s okay with older kids but prefers a quieter environment without too much commotion. Dumplin is a bit of an independent spirit who enjoys affection on her own terms. Although she allows petting, she dislikes being picked up and will let you know when she wants space. This lovely lady has a "Tortie-Tude" and wears it proudly! Her vet recommends special urinary food to prevent UTIs and manage stress, so her new family should be prepared to help with her diet. An extra-large, high-sided litter box is also essential for her comfort. Dumplin is spayed, microchipped, and current on her vaccinations. Her adoption fee is waived!
