About Pocketbook

Pocketbook may be carrying a little extra baggage right now, but this sweet mama is ready for a fresh start. She arrived in our care expecting babies and nursing a broken leg. While she’s not a candidate for surgery at this time, her leg is safely supported in a splint as she rests and heals in foster care before her little ones make their grand entrance. Understandably, Pocketbook can be a bit scared at first. Yet, beneath her nerves lies a loving girl who enjoys gentle pets and gradually begins to let her guard down once she knows she’s safe. With a little time, she may even reward you with the sweetest kisses—just ask the SNIPSA staff! For now, Pocketbook is enjoying the rest and TLC she deserves as we eagerly await the arrival of her tiny "change purses." This mama is ready for her next chapter. What are you waiting for?
