Daphne

My story

Looking for a majestic house panther to call your own? Daphne may be the one you’ve been waiting for! This striking black beauty arrived at our shelter in mid-March after being transferred from an overcrowded Ohio shelter. Since then, she’s been treated for an ear infection, spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. She’s now all set to find her "purr-ever" home. Daphne may be a little guarded and skeptical of new surroundings at first, so she’ll need an adopter who will give her the time and space she needs to feel safe and secure. Once she knows she can trust you, we believe her true personality will shine! Patience and understanding are key for this lovely lady, but the reward of a loyal, affectionate companion will be well worth it. After all, every house panther has a mysterious side! As for her name, Daphne has an enchanting origin. It comes from the Greek myth of the nymph who transformed into a laurel tree to escape Apollo's pursuit. In this way, Daphne symbolizes grace, resilience and the power of self-protection – much like this lovely girl who is learning to trust in her own time. Are you ready to open your heart and home to Daphne? Adopt her today, and you’ll have a stunning and loyal house panther to share your life with! You can visit her during open hours Tuesdays through Fridays 3:30-6:30pm AND Saturdays & Sundays 1pm-4pm. No appointments are needed during those times. If you are not available during those times, special arrangements for a meet and greet may be able to be arranged by emailing arfcats@bereaanimalrescue.com. Thank you for considering the adoption of a shelter animal in need!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Daphne, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
