Adopt a Calico in North Carolina

Calico cats are known for their striking tri-color coats of white, black, and orange. Like tabby, calico is a color pattern rather than a breed, and calicos are well-represented in shelters. They're often described as having bold, sassy personalities.

North Carolina's rescue cat population is significant statewide, with strong TNR and adoption networks across the Triangle, Charlotte, and the mountains. Adoptable cats are abundant year-round.
