Story
From his foster "Scrapper is very sweet, cuddly, and playful!  She was found in a Sherril's Ford barn about one day after being born. The owner of the barn could hear the kitten crying all day but could not find it until that night. She was found in some hay and she was cold. She wasn't expected to survive, but she did! Now she is ready for her furever home!" ##2601533##
