About Capella

Capella came to us with his brother, and both were absolutely frightened in their new surroundings. At just 3 months old, Capella is learning that people can be kind. Though he may not yet be ready for cuddles, every small step towards trust feels like a victory. He needs a patient person who understands that it will take time to help him feel secure. As he grows, we're hopeful he will discover the good side of humans. Currently, Capella gets along with other cats but does not do well with children. He’s a little guy with a big heart, waiting for the right home to help him on his journey. Every adoption starts with you.
