A volunteer writes: Quiet as a mouse is how I would describe our lovely lady Lulu, who was hanging back shyly when I met her the other day in the cat adoption room. As I whispered her name, she looked up at me with alert warm eyes, communicating her gentle nature and softness without making a peep. She’s a cuddly beauty with an endearing white tuft of hair on her chest and a wet gum drop nose. Besides her good looks, Lulu is also very well behaved, and our behavior team deemed her to be a great fit in just about any kind of household. Silent, solid, calm, neat, confident, and with off the charts BFF potential, Lulu is every cat adopter’s dream come true.

A volunteer writes: Hello, humans! My name is Lulu, and I’m tiny girl with beautiful black fur and emerald green eyes. Good looks aside, I’ll be honest, I was a little out of sorts when I first got here. My past is quite mysterious, since I was found as a stray (I would tell you the full details, but I don’t believe you’re fluent in “feline”), and being in a new place with new people and smells and noises–well, it made me feel a little scared and a little sad, and I didn’t feel like getting to know people too much. But I knew I had to put my best paw forward, and with the help of my human friends, I’ve been feeling much better and showing off my (pretty great, in my opinion,) personality.  I like getting petted, and I enjoy eating treats from my human’s hand, and when I’m really happy, I will purr up a storm! I really am thankful to be safe indoors, and I would love the chance to blossom as a furry companion in a real home. Please consider checking me out!
