My story

Meet Ari—a tender soul with a gentle heart, still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. She’s also a proud Hidden Gems Club member, which means her sweetest qualities shine once you give her the time to open up. When she first arrived, Ari preferred to stay hidden, keeping to herself and watching everything from a safe spot. But over time, she’s grown braver in our colony rooms, learning from the other cats that people aren’t so scary after all—especially when she sees her feline friends getting showered with affection. These days, she comes down more often, hovering nearby with curious eyes, tempted to join in for love and attention herself. With patience, kindness, and a calm environment, Ari continues to blossom, revealing glimpses of her playful, affectionate side. She’s searching for a home that understands trust takes time but knows the reward is a sweet, gentle companion who will make every milestone feel meaningful. If you believe in letting love unfold at its own pace, Ari just might be the one for you.

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