Plenty of Pets

Miss Mouse is a seven-month-old girl who would like to be in a quieter home.

She does get along with other cats, and dog, but responds quicker when she’s the only cat. She’s a little shy at first, but once she’s comfortable she’ll search for attention.
Miss. Mouse is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated.

If you’d like to share your home with her, contact Wayward Cats on Facebook, email [email protected] or call 902-957-8677.
