Adopt a Domestic Short Hair in New Mexico

Domestic Short Hair cats — the most common cat in rescue — are mixed-heritage cats with short coats, varied colors, and personalities ranging from cuddly to independent. Their genetic diversity tends to make them robust and long-lived. A rescued DSH fits almost any household.

New Mexico's rescue cat population is substantial, with active TNR programs in Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Community cats and rural strays contribute meaningfully to the adoptable population.
