***SAFE 05/06/17*** KAT PURRS WHEN GIVEN ATTENTION!! A volunteer writes: Kitty Kat, Kit Kat, you’d think she was a girl but, uh, uh, he’s a boy who looks like a kitten. And he’s such a sweetie pie who loves petting and does that roll-over thing that says “I like you, I hope you like me.” On top of that, he’s got the cutest skunk-stripe down his nose. What’s not to love!
