About Holly

Holly was found abandoned on the side of the road with her siblings, taken in by a good Samaritan. Since then, she has been a dedicated mother, giving birth and raising her babies in foster care. Now that her mothering days are behind her, Holly is ready to find a permanent home. She’s extremely affectionate, often opting to sit on laps and be held close, while also enjoying gentle brushings and nail trims in her foster home. Recently, she has taken a liking to drinking from the faucet, so a water fountain might delight her. We haven't observed her with other cats outside her family, and we can’t comment on her experience with dogs or kids. However, Holly's friendly and outgoing nature suggests she could adapt well with the right introductions. Start your journey together! Apply now.
