Notes from St Francis Society Animal Rescue
Hi, I'm Kelly.
For almost a year, I've watched other cats leave adoption events with their new families while I climbed back into my carrier and headed home. Every time, I hoped maybe the next family would choose me. Sometimes I wonder if it's because I'm not a tiny kitten anymore or because I'm just a regular brown tabby. I hear people say fluffy cats get adopted faster, and I wish they knew that the best things about me have nothing to do with my fur. I'm a professional cuddle puddle starter. If another kitty is taking a nap, I'll be right there snuggling up beside them until we've got a whole pile of cats. My foster mom says I have the funniest personality, and I love making everyone laugh with my silly little antics. I do need another friendly cat in my forever home because life is simply better with a best friend to cuddle.
I've been waiting almost a year for someone to see me for who I am. Maybe that someone is you. ❤️
