Cat of the Week: Callie


Meet the new Cat of the Week, Callie! Callie is COTW just in time for Mother's Day--she came to the refuge five years ago after having kittens. There was a litter of kittens at the Goathouse who had lost their mother, and Callie graciously nursed them until they were ready to be adopted! Callie has been waiting a long time for her own home, and she is a sponsored cat, which means her adoption is FREE! Callie is super cute, gets along well with other cats, and is READY for her forever home!
