Meet LILY! You’ll never believe
this sweet girl is 11 years old! She
was surrendered only when her
owner, due to medical reasons,
was no longer able to care for
her. Lily will instantly greet you at
her kennel door, and purr softly.
This kitty is content on your lap
while she is brushed or scratched
behind her ears or under her chin.
And this friendly, sassy girl is
ready for her new forever home.
