Meet Karen, a 2-year-old tabby lady with a very clear sense of what she likes… and what she absolutely doesn’t. Strong-willed, opinionated, and never shy about voicing her displeasure, Karen sets high standards and expects them to be met. Change? Not her thing. Other cats? Hard pass. Too much attention? She’ll let you know when she’s had enough.

But don’t let her sass fool you-Karen has plenty to offer. Independent, entertaining, and full of personality, she’ll keep you laughing with her antics and humble with her legendary side-eye. While shelter life isn’t her favorite, her foster home reports that once she’s settled, Karen is affectionate and a true delight.

Karen is seeking a home that respects her boundaries-a peaceful kingdom where she can lounge in comfort and call the shots. Her ideal environment is calm, quiet, and cat-free (and kid-free), so she can thrive without chaos. Karen loves spending time on the catio here at the shelter so may suit a home with a safe outdoor environment.
