PET OF THE WEEK

Body
WEEK Alpine Humane Society Pet of the Week is Pixie. Pixie came into the shelter at around five months old and was adopted a few weeks later. A month later, she was returned, the adopter claiming she needed too much attention. Well, if you have too much attention to give miss Pixie, we know she would absolutely love you for life. She is looking for a family that would like to share her love and attention. She is ready to play or curl up on a lap and nap. So long as she has her person, she is a happy cat. She seems to do well with the cats in that cattery right now, so a cat or kitten playmate would be great but not a must. Does this young lady, full of personality, sound like the purrfect fit for your family?
