Hi!  My name is Selene.  I’m so happy to finally be ready for adoption! I’ve been with the shelter since Christmas.  Many dedicated volunteers have worked tirelessly to get me where I am today.  I was found cold and starving under a bush on Christmas Day.  Some very kind souls brought me to the Humane Society so I could get the help I needed.  I was approximately 6-8 months old at that time but weighed under 2 lbs – I was severely underweight.  My first dedicated foster mom took me in and, among many things, hydrated me with fluids and fed me so I could begin to gain weight.  After I was stable and headed in a positive direction, I went on to my next foster home for socialization and to continue to gain weight.  At my 2^nd (current) foster home, I have been healthy enough to thrive!  Stressful situations, like moving homes, causes me to have a lot of anxiety and overgroom myself. I have been spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and tested negative for fiv/FeLV. 

 I’ve been with my foster family for two and a half months now.  I’ve really made myself at home!  I still get along well with all the other cats and dogs in the house.  One of the resident cats is a young adult and I like to run and play with her.  The noisy boys don’t bother me one bit!  I enjoy being around my foster family and have finally learned to enjoy some attention from people!  I am doing better about being held for short amounts of time.  At bedtime, I like to sleep on or next to my foster mom’s legs for a couple hours.  I’ve gotten so comfortable at my foster home that I’ve stopped overgrooming and have gorgeous, shiny black fur now, with a white patch on my chest. 

                I know it will take me a little extra time to adjust to a new home, but I am really hoping for a forever home of my own!  Please contact the shelter to arrange a meeting with me.  Unfortunately, I will be very nervous and unhappy while there, but please know that this is not how I will be in my own home.  My foster family would be happy to show you videos of me happily running and playing at my foster home so you can get a glimpse of my normal personality

Shelter hours are Tuesdays 5:30-7:30 pm and Saturdays 10:00 am-2:00 pm. Closed Holidays.
