Beena
DMH Calico - I am around 4 1/2 years old and am a very vocal girl. I have a lot to say and a lot to give! I had been left in a box in front of the gate, but still have hope in people. I get along with other cats, and enjoy being held and petted. I do get to walk around at the shelter, but would enjoy a home very much. Please stop in and say hello!

Murphi and Timmy
(Must be adopted together)

Murphi: SH Tiger Tabby- I am 9 yr old and I am the leaner brother. I came with Timmi from Germany and likes to romp around at night with him. I do like to be petted and have no problem with children or other cats. Like my brother, Timmi, I am also shy at first but after a couple of minute, I forget about being shy.

Timmy: Orange DSH- Sprechen Sie Deutsch? Well I am a healthy 9-year-old male who is trying very hard to lose some weight. My sidekick Murphi came with me from Germany, so I would love to lose weight in your home with Murphi. I am very friendly and do not let things get to me. I would be fine in a home with any age children, but I am a little bit shy at first. (both are members of our Seniors program – fee waived). .
