I heard someone call me a cow cat which I thought was rather rude. I mean, ok, my markings do remind you of a cow but I'm much sweeter and more fluffy to look at, you must agree. I'm only young so I'm a bit shy and scared of life at the moment. Can you help me come out of my shell and grow some confidence? You look kind. You look as if you'll take care of me. You look as if you'll love me and feed me and be gentle. Please take me home. The CCC is in need of supplies, especially litter (Scoop Away), bleach, laundry detergent, dry and wet cat and kitten food (Purina/Friskies), paper towels, trash bags, and treats!
