***SAFE 7/31/17*** A volunteer writes: Blizzard is sure to stir a “flurry” of emotions when you meet her. This gal has been very patient, waiting for that forever cat parent to come along. Her sweet ways and gentle looks will capture your heart. This young lady would surely be so grateful to be surrounded by those who will love her for all time. Don’t you think it’s time to stop by and meet Blizzard? Just think, when you are stuck in the house during an actual blizzard, you’ll have your own personal Blizzard to snuggle with!
