Lorelai needs a Foster!
Lorelai is in need of a Foster Home!๐ She is a large five-year-old lady who isn't feeling well in more ways than one. This kitty currently has a fairly bad upper respiratory infection and will have her medicine with her when she goes home. She also needs more exercise and a healthy diet, as she overweight and has a small frame. Her fur is falling out of her back - overall, this sweet girl needs some tender loving care to get back to feeling like her old self. Call us or fill out the form here if you're interested in providing a temporary home for her to recover: hsbh.org/foster
We'd also like to note that she needs to be away from other cats at this time, as her URI is contagious. So far, she has been a bit grumpy with other kitties, but we're not sure if this is just because she's not feeling well.
NewsCenter1 Pet of the Week: Felix
UPDATE: Felix has been adopted!!!
A very sweet and loving cat is NewsCenter1's Pet of the Week!๐พ๐ฅณ Felix is a two-and-a-half-year-old kitty who, as you can see, is a fan of head-booping your legs and settling down on your lap for pets and cuddles. He currently lives in Kitty Land with many feline roommates, of whom he does not mind, as long as they don't get too close to his face. This social, sweet guy would love to come home with you!
