My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nutmeg is a sweet little 10 year old senior girl. She was turned into a local shelter as a stray.It's obvious she has been neglected for a long time. Her hair was matted with fleas and she has very few teeth left. The ones that she does have are in bad shape and will probably need extracted. The patella on one of her legs is positioned to the side and will need to be corrected with surgery. Her nails are so overgrown, they will have to be cut and packed while she is under anesthesia. She will be available for adoption a few weeks after her surgery, allowing for recovery time. This little girl has been through a lot and will need a family that can spend lots of time spoiling and loving her. She is housetrained, but has had a couple of accidents, so patience is required.
