From Loving Care Cat Rescue

Birthday: March 1, 2022 Dahlia is a sweet and shy girl with a heart full of love who is just waiting for someone patient enough to help her feel safe. Dahlia came from a hoarding situation where the landlord ultimately said all of the cats had to leave. She was used to living around a large number of cats and spent much of her time outside, where she didn't receive much individual human attention simply because there were so many cats needing care. It's easy to see that Dahlia desperately wants to be loved—she's just a little scared and isn't quite sure how to ask for it yet. Once Dahlia feels comfortable with you, you'll discover an incredibly sweet and affectionate girl. She loves being petted, and when she's excited for attention, she'll happily circle around you while making biscuits. Those little moments are a glimpse of the loving companion she can become once she knows she is safe. Dahlia isn't a fan of being picked up right now. She needs to establish trust with her person before she's comfortable being handled that way. With time, patience, and a strong bond, we believe she may eventually tolerate being picked up, but that's something that needs to happen on her terms…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.

How adopting Dahlia works

Loving Care Cat Rescue decides every adoption: its application, its fee, its home check and its timing. Everybarn only shows this animal on the rescue's behalf, takes no payment and passes no messages.
