About Dart

Dart is a quiet and timid young cat with a sleek black coat and soulful eyes. She has spent over a year in foster care, where she received love but remains quite anxious around people. Dart isn’t aggressive; she simply prefers to keep her distance, often hiding when humans are near. On rare occasions, she'll allow gentle pets when feeling safe, but she doesn't seek out affection. With ongoing patience and understanding, she may gradually come out of her shell, though a peaceful environment—like a barn or closed outdoor space—would suit her best. Dart has a close bond with her brother, Dash, a timid brown tabby. Both share a reserved nature, and adopting them together would provide the comfort and security they need. They would thrive in a home that appreciates their gentle dynamic without overwhelming interaction. Please consider giving these two sweet cats a warm and safe forever home. All cats adopted through To The ResQ have been examined by a vet, spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, combo-tested, and dewormed. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
