GEMINI – A1113972
Safe - 6-13-2017 Brooklyn
*** SAFE 06/13/17 *** Gemini is a cute young kitty who’s not feeling great because of her URI, and is a little shy as well! While she has purred some during interactions, she seems a bit overwhelmed by the goings-on of the shelter and would love to go to an experienced kitty home where she can explore and warm up at her own pace.
