*** SAFE 06/11/17 *** A volunteer writes: You might mistake Storm for a kitten. She’s a tiny girl — a pixie of a cat who looks so delicate. But she’s really a little pocket rocket — ready to play, and full of personality. She’s looking for a home where she can enjoy being part of the family — getting to know people, and sticking her nose into everyone’s business. She might be called Storm, but this little cat is pure sunshine.
