My story

***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org*** Bobcat (sister to Skunk) is what your therapist says you need...boundaries. She's all about respect, mostly you respecting her that is; she's a cat after all. While her sister Skunk will give you all the love you desire, it's her love that will feel like a reward. She needs someone that wants to take care of both her and her sister as the pair they are! She needs someone that will be patient with her, after all you are a stranger. Bobcat has shown her foster parents after two months that she wants to love humans but on her own accord. It is often that this love is shown when the room is quiet and everyone else if off playing. She loves laps and belly rubs, and while you may wonder in the beginning if she will warm up to you as her sister is purring in your lap...she will, she just needs time. When she does warm up to you, you'll know you've just done something not everyone has the power to do; winning over a cat. The girls were born the first part of October 2025 and are spayed, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped.  As always cat/kitten adoption is free will to approved applicants.  March 7, 2026, 6:20 pm

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