About Gracie

Gracie is a spirited barn cat with a classic gray coat, ready to lend a paw in natural pest control. She thrives in a semi-independent life, preferring the outdoors where she can roam freely, maintaining her territory while ensuring her home remains rodent-free. As a barn cat, Gracie may not be the cuddly lap companion you might expect. Instead, she is more likely to be a shy presence at first, warming up to the kind souls who provide her care, especially those who bring her food. A stable outdoor environment with accessible shelter is crucial for her comfort, ensuring she has protection and a reliable food source. Gracie is spayed, up to date on her vaccinations, and tested negative for FeLV/FIV. She’s looking for a home that respects her independent nature, ideally in a setting where she can be part of a small group of cats. Consider adopting this practical feline to help manage your property’s pest issues, and enjoy the charm she will bring to any outdoor space. Start your journey together! Apply now.
