Peanut is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet of The Week

She's a mommy.

(RCHS - Mark Viguri)

Peanut is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 2-year-old, 7-1/2-pound, female, Domestic Short Hair cat with a Torbie (Tortoiseshell/Tabby) coat.

Peanut and her five kittens were surrendered by their owner, who could no longer afford to take care of them. They went into foster care with a trained Rancho Coastal Humane Society volunteer.

All five kittens have found their forever homes. Now it’s Peanut’s turn to begin her new life.
