About Callie

Meet Callie, our captivating calico queen who wears her unamused expression like a badge of honor. With the look of someone who's just spotted a toilet paper roll installed backwards, she might seem like she has no time for nonsense. But behind that serious facade lies a shy, sweet girl who's working on opening up. Callie came to us as an owner surrender through no fault of her own.
