About Nelly

Howdy, partner! Meet Nelly, the sweetest gal this side of the Mississippi! Nelly may be a seasoned cowgirl at 14 years old, but don’t let her silver years fool you—she still has her moments of playful energy with a little case of the zoomies! She's working on her house training and gets along great with both dogs and cats. This quiet gal prefers a peaceful homestead to a raucous rodeo, and she's ready to settle into a forever home where she can enjoy her golden years in comfort. While Nelly isn’t one for long walks, she loves to roam and sniff out interesting scents at her own pace. She has a legendary snore that might make you wonder if there's a herd of cattle sleeping nearby! Stairs can be a bit of a challenge for her, so a home with fewer steps would be ideal. One thing's for sure: Nelly isn’t a fan of crates, so she’ll need a home where she can relax freely. Though she hasn't met any little ones yet, her foster thinks she would be just fine with children. If you’re looking for a loyal companion for quiet evenings, cozy naps, and the occasional wild west wiggle, Nelly is ready to ride off into the sunset with you. Let’s find this treasure her forever home!
