A volunteer writes: When I visited Raspberry yesterday, he was doing what all cats do in the middle of a warm afternoon–taking a powernap curled up in a ball, snoozing the hours away. I didn’t want to wake up this sleepyhead, so I watched him for a while and hoped he was dreaming about all the good things that would come his way here at the Care Center: big bowls of kibble, toys to play with, volunteers to get to know him . . . and of course, potential pet parents who would see his clean, soft fur, be drawn in by his magnetic green eyes, and realize that this quite gentleman is the answer to all their feline dreams. Make it happen for Raspberry by introducing yourself to him today!
NEW PHOTO – CAME IN WITH LARGE GROUP OF CATS – NEEDS A NEW HOME! Raspberry is as sweet as the fruit he’s named for. After coming to ACC from a home with 17 other cats, Raspberry has found his voice, in the form of a very loud purr. He likes to snuggle up in his box, and as soon as you open his kennel you can hear him start to purr!
