About Willow

Meet Willow! This charming girl is around 11.5 years old and recently rescued after being found rummaging through trash for food. A kind Good Samaritan realized she needed help and brought her to safety. Now, Willow thrives in a loving environment, showcasing her affectionate and playful nature. Willow has a lovely buff and white coat with tabby stripes and enjoys the company of other cats. She's spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and is house trained. Cat-savvy adopters would be ideal, as she appreciates attention but can become overstimulated if petted for too long. Willow gets along well with children, making her a wonderful companion for families. Remember, she loves her feline friends, so she will be happiest in a home with another cat or a cat-friendly dog.
