Welcome to the "new addition" or should we say the "old addition" of the HSCI. The following pictures and bios are of those who have been living at the HSCI for a year or more. Their adoption fee is $50.00. (See the special note regarding the Ragdoll Gang kitties covering the cost!)  We hope that you will take the time to look at them. You never know; one of them may be the one you've been waiting for. Dear potential adopters, Hi, we're the "Wallflower Cats." Have you seen us? We all understand that choosing the "perfect" cat is sometimes difficult. As new cats arrive each week and our "family" here at the HSCI grows larger, the decision becomes even more difficult. There are always so many faces to choose from. Though some of our "friends" have been adopted there are still quite a few of us left. We're hoping that you will take a minute to review our pictures and bios and maybe see that one of us may be the right one for you. Though we may seem very comfortable here at the HSCI we are still searching for that forever loving home to become a part of. We have yet to give up hope. We know the right person is out there, could you be that person? Sincerely, "The Wallflower Cats"

Samara is a talkative 4-year-old Black DSH. She is also front paw declaw. She likes to sit around the Adult Cat Room watching the other cats and looking out the window at the birds.
