Notes from Marshmallow Foundation

Meet Petunia!

Petunia is a shy but friendly girl looking for a home that understands and respects her gentle nature. Once she feels safe, she reveals herself as a true cuddle bug who absolutely loves pets and affection.

She can get overstimulated easily and may give a playful nip to the hand that is petting her. This is completely preventable with a little patience and awareness, and it is never meant to be harmful; just her enthusiastic way of asking for a brief pause. In many ways, Petunia is simply trying to catch up on all the petting she has missed so far in her life! If you are ready to give this sweet girl the calm, understanding home she deserves, Petunia would be thrilled to settle in and share all the cozy moments she has to offer.

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.
