Featured Kitty

Marshmellow

Rainbow Bridge

Sweet Marshmellow always looks like he is daydreaming.  So one day I asked him, “Hey Marshmellow, what are you daydreaming about?” He replied, “A family to call my own.”
You see, Marshmellow has probably never had his own family. And if anyone deserves one, it is him! He is such a sweetheart and always has that cute dreamy look on his face.
If you are looking for someone to just hang out on the couch with you, reading a book or watching TV, Marshmellow is your man! I think he will do just about anything with you, as long as he has his person by his side. Please come by and see Marshmellow soon. We are all rooting for a good home for him!
