Tootsie Calico & Tortoiseshell Mix Sautee Nacoochee, GA

Meet Tootsie
Poor Tootsie has been returned… it was a situation where the other house cat was mean to Tootsie and attacking her mercilessly. The family tried everything (and for quite awhile) to ease the unrest and create a kitty harmony, but it wasn’t happening. Cats new to Tootsie seem to sense how gentle and meek she is and take advantage. Like dogs, kitties also have a pack hierarchy and Tootsie is not a stand her ground kitty or fighter. Tootsie is so sad and depressed to be back at our shelter. She is an absolute love. She loves snuggles and cuddles. She just wants to be with her people and to live serenely. The shelter cats she grew up with are her friends and there were no issues. We think Tootsie would do best as a single kitty or adopted with another of our shelter kitties. Please help us get this beauty home as soon as we can.

Resident animals are primarily owner relinquished and also accepted from local Animal Control. The facility usually is operating at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.
Our shelter is currently closed to the general public as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. However, for approved adopters we are making appointments to meet and adopt your fur baby.
