02/17/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Poor Snowflake! He’s been put in a kennel for a big cat, so he is very comfortable, with lots of room to move around in. But he’s in a far corner of one of the adoption rooms, so he may be overlooked by people coming in to find the purr-fect cat companion. Snowflake is certainly that, a big white kitty who is a wee bit shy but very sweet and loving once you start to pet him. What Snowflake needs right now is a home with caring human companions and a lot of space for this big boy to explore.
