Meet Shorty

Meet Shorty! A loving eleven-and-a-half-year-old American Bobtail from Oklahoma City, OK, whose affectionate nature is as heartwarming as her unique little gallop of excitement. With her striking brown tabby coat accented by soft touches of white, she’s a picture of charm and elegance—wrapped up in a perfectly petite, 8-pound frame! Shorty is a cat who truly adores people. Whether it’s curling up in a warm lap, soaking in all the attention she can get, or being picked up for a snuggle, she thrives on human connection. She’s the kind of feline who will greet you at the door like an old friend and settle in beside you for a cozy nap. But don’t be fooled by her senior status—she still has a playful spark! She’ll break into spontaneous zoomies, galloping across the room like a tiny, four-legged racehorse, just to keep things interesting. And if she spots a bird outside? Expect some delightful chattering as she shares her commentary on the neighborhood wildlife. Shorty is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations, making her ready to step seamlessly into a new, loving home. She has a gentle, friendly nature and is great with young children and even dogs, but when it comes to other cats, she prefers to keep her space. Ideally, she’s looking for a quiet home where she can be the star of the show—somewhere she can soak up attention, explore her surroundings at a leisurely pace, and claim the coziest sleeping spots as her own. One of her little quirks? She has a fascination with plastic bottle caps. Forget fancy toys—give her a cap, and she’ll be entertained for hours! Supervised backyard adventures are another favorite pastime, where she can bask in the sun and take in the sights and sounds of nature. Are you ready to welcome this affectionate, people-loving, bottle-cap-chasing sweetheart into your home? Shorty is eager to find a cozy spot in your heart. Contact [email protected] to meet her today!
