Bonnie is this week’s pet. She is an almost 3-year-old albino reverse calico. You will quickly notice her beautiful coat! She was originally adopted from another shelter but had to be relinquished due to her owner’s deteriorating health. Bonnie is such a sweet girl and she’s now lonely! She can be timid, but she enjoys being a lap cat and would do best in a calmer setting. She would make a wonderful companion in a single cat home, or with others like her. Although playful kittens are cute, maybe you’ll find Bonnie’s gentle way more appealing. Stop in to meet her this week Friday 3-6pm and Saturdays 10am-2pm. You can also call 620-440-4375 or visit our website www.wellingtonhumanesociety.org/cats.
