Pet of the Week LIME
3 years old, female - Hey there, my name is Lime. I am the independent type who likes to stay put and do my own thing. I love to lounge around in cardboard boxes and other small spaces to unwind and relax. I need some time to get comfortable with new people and new places. I enjoy being pet once I’m settled in and will need a patient home where I can grow at my own pace. Do you have a low activity household with no young kids? Count me in!
