PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email.
It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes, and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life.
The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! Rescue mama has had 3 live into their 20's. One was 8 weeks old.
CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON was saved from a horrible hoarding case in Rialto, California. The lady was evicted and the owner sold the house. The new owner decided that his dogs would live outside and so basically told the feeder that she had to remove all the cats The rescue that was saving all the cats reached out for us to help.
Meet CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON - A Sweet, Shy Siamese with a Heart Full of Love
Introducing CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON, a gentle and affectionate Siamese long-haired cat who's ready to start a new chapter in her life. CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON's journey hasn't been easy, but with a little patience and love, she's blossoming into a wonderful companion.
CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON's story began in Rialto, California, where she found herself living in a difficult and unsafe environment. Despite the challenges she faced, CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON has kept her sweet and soft nature. She's a bit shy at first, but once she feels comfortable, her true, loving personality shines through.
As a former outdoor cat, CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON is still adjusting to the indoor life. She's learning what it means to be safe and pampered, and with a patient adopter, she'll continue to grow in confidence and trust. CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON enjoys spending time in quiet, cozy spots where she can observe her surroundings. Though she likes to hide and take things slow, she's completely okay with being gently picked up and held, once she feels at ease with you.
CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON would thrive in a calm and understanding household, where she can take her time to acclimate. She may do best with a friendly, laid-back cat buddy to help her feel more secure as she adjusts to indoor living. Having a feline friend could help her gain confidence and show her just how wonderful life can be as a cherished indoor companion.
If you're someone with patience and a loving heart, CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON is waiting for her forever home. With time, care, and understanding, CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON will transform into the loving, sweet cat she's meant to be. She's ready to share her sweet nature with the right family-could that be you?
If you think you can offer CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON the peaceful and nurturing environment she needs, please reach out. CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON can't wait to show you how truly special she is!
CAPTAIN ZOE ANDERSON is a DOMESTIC LONG HAIR / MAINECOON MIX. She is about 1 year and 0 months old. She has lived with cats but needs proper introduction. She has never lived with dogs. She has never been around children.
