Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Candy is a 7-month-old white and brown tabby cat who was found as a stray in Buxton. Despite her shy nature, she is incredibly sweet. Throughout the day, she tends to hide under her blankets, but during meal times she emerges to seek affection and food before retreating back to her hiding spot. It is believed that Candy is stressed in her current environment, which may explain her behavior.
Recently, Candy underwent surgery to remove a benign lump from her side. With a loving and caring home, it is expected that she will flourish and become more playful. Candy's shyness may dissipate as she becomes more comfortable in a new and welcoming environment. Adopting Candy would not only provide her with security and love but also give her the opportunity to thrive and showcase her true personality.

Adopting an animal from the OBX SPCA is simple! Please take a look at our adoptable animals to determine which pet/s interests you. Please do NOT complete the Petango application online, as we do not receive them. Contact us with questions about the animal of interest – you can either email our Cat Care Manager, kellieb@obxspca.org, or our Kennel Manager, leanns@obxspca.org. You can also call our main number, 252-475-5620, to find out more. Or simply stop by shelter to browse and meet our animals and our staff members will assist with any introductions.
You will need to bring your driver’s license, a cat carrier if adopting a cat, and a leash and collar if adopting a dog. Cats, or a pair of cats/kittens, are adoptable for $50 and dogs are adoptable for $85 or $175, depending on size and age.
We do ask that you remain open-minded about which animal you choose. Our staff of matchmakers know the cats and dogs very well and are dedicated to introducing you to the pets that will fit your lifestyle! Once you meet your match and are ready to adopt, you will complete any necessary applications and paperwork in person while at the shelter. The next step is that our staff and managers will review the applications for each animal, and if approved, you can take the animal home that very day! If any post-adoption instructions are required, they will be given to you before you take your new pet home.
