Story
Sherlock is a very sweet girl! She's two years old, loves being pet on her head, and loves to nap near a window. She can be a bit shy at times and usually does her own thing, but she does enjoy sleeping in bed with you and getting snuggles when she's in the mood for it. Sherlock is never aggressive. Sherlock doesn't love other cats but she doesn't hate them either-- she just tolerates and coexists with them. She would do well with older children (young ones might be a bit loud for her but she will not be aggressive). If you're looking for a sweet, low-maintenance cat, Sherlock is the girl for you. ##1251613##

ELVIS NEEDS A 3 week FOSTER(Or his owner is dropping him at the shelter tomorrow) Elvis is 1 year old and neutered. We are working with @peace_4animals to try to save this sweet boy from having to go to the shelter tomorrow. We may have a home for him June 18th which would mean we only need a 3 week foster Even better would be a new home. He’s great with other cats. And birds. Not sure about dogs.  *too many people are dumping their pets because they are “moving to a no pet building.” THAT IS A SHIT EXCUSE. These are your children.  Please help if u canInfo@theanimalrescuemission.org or DM @peace_4animals  #help #foster #volunteer #cats #catsofinstagram #fosteringsaveslives ##1424042##
