Pet of the Week!

This handsome boy with the Cheshire Cat grin is Junior! Junior is a 5-year-old orange tabby who’s looking for a second chance at love. Junior has lived indoors only and is good with cats, but prefers a home without children. Hence the reason he is here. He just wasn’t fond of the children in his prior home. Junior is an active boy, who needs extra playtime and outlets for his energy. If you think you can provide Junior with the household he is searching for, he would certainly make a great companion for you!
