Penny is a sweet, gentle, affectionate, and chatty girl. She has excellent litter box habits, uses her scratching pads well, and enjoys playing. She`s a top-notch biscuit maker, and world-class nighttime snuggler who enjoys belly rubs and a good conversation. She is a bit shy initially, and likes to have a quiet space in which to retreat.
Penny came into the shelter with her sister, so she may be OK with other animals after a slow introduction. She has not been tested with children, however, her mild temperament suggests she would be fine with children who respect her space.

As long the pet is spayed/neutered, you can take them home the same day.
