***SAFE 07/21/17*** AVERAGE RATED TINA HAS A COLD AND NEEDS YOU TONIGHT! A volunteer writes: While I am a little older (12 years old), I am a wonderful companion for someone looking for a relaxed, intelligent and thoughtful cat. I am on the heavy side, but please don’t let that get in the way of appreciating my inner and outer beauty. My previous owner ran into some personal matters and could no longer care for me, so I am eager to return to a comfortable home where I can help bring solace, warmth and joy to a new parent or family.
