About Willow

Meet Willow, a tiny but mighty young lady who found herself scared and alone after getting trapped in a car engine.

While she adores Tad, she’s a bit wary of other people and prefers a calm environment. Unfortunately, no small children or dogs should join this duo. They’re looking for a forever home together, where they can feel safe and loved. If you think you could provide Willow the comforting space she needs, apply online at WatchingOverWhiskers.org.
