About Samoa

Samoa is a charming 7.5-year-old female Domestic Short Hair with a delightful tortoiseshell coat. This slim, affectionate cat tipped the scales at 6.9 pounds when she arrived at the Humane Society for Hamilton County, having begun her journey as a stray. Although she’s in better shape now, gaining weight from her prior 5.8 pounds, she still needs a loving home. Samoa loves attention and will often greet visitors with enthusiastic head butts. She shows a clear preference for human companions over other cats, needing a gradual introduction to any resident pets. During her time in the cattery, she has demonstrated a sweet disposition, purring happily in laps and welcoming gentle affection. Though she does have some history with tummy troubles, her new diet with Hill’s Science Diet Z/D has made a significant impact. This gentle girl deserves a cozy indoor life filled with love and care. Can you offer her the home she needs? You might just find a beautiful friendship waiting for you.
