Adopt a Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat)

Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) Cat

Moyo (& Paws bonded pair) the Cat needs a home

Moyo is in foster care with her BFF, Paws (A36775470). She has really started to blossom and let her true personality shine. Paws is much more outgoing and Moyo is very shy but so sweet, so they are a good team. They both love to play and are very friendly and appreciative of attention. Moyo depends on Paws to be her brave "big sis", so they would need to be adopted together. 


Moyo is a little shy, but don't let that make you miss an opportunity to meet a wonderful cat! When she first arrived at the shelter, she would hide in her litterbox area which prevented her from being seen very well by interested adopters, but once she was moved to a room with other cats she adjusted much better.  During quiet times, she will even seek out the attention and delight in pets and head rubs. Moyo would thrive in an environment where she can be encouraged to come out of her shell more and more on her own terms. Sometimes the cats that need that initial support are the ones that are most appreciative. They reward your faith in them by being loving, devoted family members. Moyo is that type of cat!
