Salem

Bonded Pair

Salem is a gorgeous tortie who has just arrived from San Francisco Animal Care & Control and is ready to begin a new chapter. And while she may share her name with a certain famous black cat, this lovely girl has her own story to tell.

Salem is a shy lady who will need a little time and patience to feel at home. Once she’s comfortable, she enjoys gentle head pets and shows her appreciation with happy purrs and plenty of biscuit-making.

Salem is looking for a kind adopter who will help her build confidence at her own pace and make her feel safe and loved. Could you be the one to help this sweet girl settle in? Come meet Salem today!

How to Adopt Salem

Our adoption process focuses on bringing people and animals together. Adoption counselors are on site to answer questions and help connect you with your new best friend.

We offer same-day adoptions, meaning if you meet all the adoption requirements, you can leave with your newly adopted animal that same day. Get started by viewing our available cats and dogs.
