This beauty is Sunny! She is currently homeless and hopeful. Sunny is looking for a family to love, a place to call home and bed of her own. She is quite the looker and those eyes will melt you and you can’t overlook those ears. She arrived with Lyme and a Pyometra that was found when she went into be spayed. She has been treated and has recovered from both. Sunny is like a cat in that when she wants attention she wants it and when she doesn't she likes her space.
