And now a message from Izzy:
Hola, mi nombre es Izzy. Estoy listo para la adopción en Responsible Pet Care. Seré un gran miembro de la familia. Maullar.

For those of you who don’t know Spanish, I’ll translate for you:
Hello, my name is Izzy. I am ready for adoption at Responsible Pet Care. I will make a great family
member. Meow.

Izzy came to RPC back in May, all the way from Puerto Rico. She wasn’t alone, she came with her two young kittens. Izzy and her kittens had been strays in Puerto Rico, and coming to Maine was their big chance at a good life. Izzy’s kittens have been adopted, but Izzy still waits. We don’t know why – she’s a beautiful, sweet cat!

Izzy was barely a year old when she came to us in the spring. She’s a sweet girl who likes attention but isn’t needy. Izzy likes other cats, but probably isn’t a fan of dogs. Izzy is getting depressed in her cage and really needs to get into a home for her well being. If you are looking to add a cat to the family, please consider Izzy. She has been through a lot in her young life, living on the streets of Puerto Rico,
then having babies and traveling all the way to RPC, but she has yet to realize the joy of being part of a loving family. Can you make that happen for her? You can meet Izzy during our open hours or by appointment. Fill out our adoption application at www.responsiblepetcare.org/cats to be preapproved.
