She’s a petite 2-year-old domestic shorthair mix with striking black and reddish fur (hence her name). Peach is all about the quiet life: soft blankets, gentle pets, and being the solo star of the household. While she hasn’t had much experience with kids, she’s open to meeting respectful ones aged 8 and up. If you’re looking for a low-key, high-cuddle cat to bring peace and purrs into your home, Peach is your girl. Head to CThumane.org/Adopt to make it official.
