Meet Umber
Umber is currently the longest resident in our shelter.
Umber came to us as a little eight week old kitten in June 2024. She was small for her age even then. She was so sick and covered in fleas that when a resident found her she was immediately taken to the vet. They checked her out, put a care plan together and called us.
That was the year we had over 200 kittens in and out of our tiny shelter. Unfortunately, as one of numerous black kittens she was overlooked. Umber has always had an issue with her eye, making it even easier for her to be passed over for the perfect fluffy kittens. Amber‘s eye is fine and she can see out of it. She just has an issue with her tear duct that would require surgery to repair. She is perfectly fine and we think it makes her special.
Umber is a very affectionate cat. She greets nearly everyone that comes into the cat room. She loves to be pet and will grab your hand if she thinks you’re going to stop before she’s done. She has the cutest garbled meow that you can pinpoint anywhere. Umber is great with other cats and even tolerates the dogs that come into the cat room from time to time.
Umber has been waiting so patiently for her chance at a family.
