Cinderella the Cat Needs Her Fairy-Tale Ending

She's not missing a glass slipper, but Cinderella is looking for something else: a new home.

There's no evil stepmother, and she doesn't need a Prince Charming to whisk her away, but Cinderella the cat deserves her fairy-tale ending, too.

This princess of a cat is a beauty, with black and white fur and gorgeous yellow eyes. She's 2 years old, and gets along well with other cats.

Now all Cinderella needs is to find the perfect fit–an owner, not a glass slipper. Will it be you? Stop by the and find out!

The adoption fee for an adult cat such as Cinderella is normally $80, but has been lowered to $25 to help reduce the large number of cats and kittens at the shelter. Adoption fees include a basic medical exam, behavior assessment, age-appropriate vaccinations, parasite and worm check, spay or neuter, microchip ID, travel box, cat comforter and cat care information. An optional, but recommended, combination feline AIDS and feline leukemia test (for cats 12 weeks and older) is an additional $20.
