She loves to cuddle in your lap and simply wants to be near her people. She would thrive in a calm, caring home where she can continue healing—whether as a foster or forever companion.Lady Diana is ready to start her next chapter in a safe, loving environment where she can receive the care she needs and the affection she craves.December 21, 2025, 5:31 pm
