Notes from Marshmallow Foundation

Meet Merry – the warm and upbeat black-and-white sweetheart with endless energy! Merry is a young, friendly girl who truly loves people. She happily accepts pets, enjoys being picked up, and lights up with her bouncy, playful energy during playtime. She arrived at the shelter as a stray around Christmas 2025 and has been waiting patiently ever since for her forever home. She may do well with other cats once she has more space to settle in. Right now it's hard to tell true feelings amongst felines because we are so full at the shelter! Merry is looking for a loving home where she can zoom around, play, and soak up all the attention and affection she craves. If you’re ready for a cheerful companion who greets every day with joy, this sweet girl is ready to bring warmth and fun into your life!

Visitors to the shelter are by appointment only and after a form has been submitted online:

What happens next

  1. Contact Marshmallow Foundation using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Marshmallow Foundation, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the cats care guide so you arrive prepared.
