About Francesca

With her silky soft fur and striking green eyes, she loves to lounge near her humans and appreciates gentle ear scratches.

She has so much love to offer and will be a wonderful friend for someone who cherishes a quiet, peaceful life. As an additional note, Francesca has been spayed and is up to date on vaccinations. If you're looking for a loving companion who embodies tranquility, Francesca may be the perfect fit for you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
