Love IS Adoptable at 34 Elbow St!
Waiting for her forever home. Could it be yours?
 Minnie
Minnie is around 5 years old. She was abandoned at the shelter, so we don't know anything about her background. She has been very scared here at the shelter, with so many new smells, sounds, and faces all around her. With a patient owner, she should come around and be a great cat. Minnie's ID# is F12183.
Visit our adoptable cats!
For information about finding your new best friend, visit Adopt at PARL. We have plenty of happy, healthy pets just like Minnie just waiting to meet you. Get ready to fall in love! |

He ate well and used the litter box, but he clearly wasn't thrilled in his new environment and was not used to people.
