Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Vera.  This adult lady carries an air of independence that is truly admirable. She prefers to explore her surroundings on her own terms, finding joy in solitary pursuits. Despite her independence, Vera is also a little shy, a trait that makes her all the more endearing. It may take her a little while to warm up to new people, but once she does, she forms deep and lasting bonds. She's a companion who values her own space, but also cherishes the company of those she trusts. Vera would make an ideal pet for someone who respects her independence and understands her shyness. Adopt Vera and provide her with a loving home where she can continue to blossom at her own pace.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 10, 2025, 7:54 pm
