About Beauty

Starving for food and help, she risked everything to approach a nearby house, where she was finally given shelter. Her caregivers quickly saw her gentle, beautiful spirit beneath the fear. Though still wary of loud noises and cars, Beauty allows herself bits of trust around people, showing her true sweetness in a quiet home. With her long, thick black coat, she’ll need regular grooming to keep from matting—something that feels more like pampering than a chore. Beauty is likely between one and three years old and searching for a safe, loving place to finally settle.
