Official Species Correction Notice: Cali Is Actually A Cat

When Cali first came into our care, we believed she was a dog. After extensive research, multiple peer reviews, and several world-class judgmental side-eyes, we can now confirm Cali is actually a large, red-headed house cat disguised as a pibble.

Supporting evidence includes:

Firmly believes she should be the only pet in the home (as any self-respecting monarch would).

• Tolerates other dogs on walks the same way cats tolerate baths — with deep personal offense but controlled composure.

• Has zero interest in sharing her kingdom with actual cats. There can only be one queen.

• Former street entrepreneur with excellent decision-making skills and a strong independent streak.

• Carefully selects her people… then loves them with her whole oversized, slightly dramatic heart.

Cali has officially retired from street life and is now seeking a full-time role as a couch ornament, blanket burrower, and highly committed personal shadow.

Ideal staff (formerly known as adopters) will:

• Understand she may occasionally ignore you on purpose

• Have experience with strong, intelligent dogs (…or very large cats)

• Provide at least one couch worthy of royalty

• Provide snacks on demand (this is not a suggestion)

The Fine Print (aka the good news):

• Up to date on vaccines

• Comes with a spay voucher

• Expert-level skills in looking adorable while silently judging your life choices

If you’re ready to welcome this rare and majestic pibble-cat hybrid, please contact Essex Regional Animal Control and complete an application through the Essex Town website.

Important: Cali is not looking for roommates. She is looking for staff
