Furry Tails: Slinky's Searching For A Good Home

Are you looking to bring a pet into your home? Local animal shelters are a great place to find a furry companion. So, as part of Furry Tails, I'll be doing an ongoing feature on adoptable pets from local animal shelters once a week. If you have room in your heart and are looking to bring a lovable ball of fur into your home, maybe one of these guys is meant to be a part of your family!

Slinky

Animal Friends
Slinky is a handsome kitty with special needs. He's looking for a forever home where he'll get lots of love and the special attention he needs!

Slinky was found as a stray by a family who had several other cats and an older dog. Slinky enjoyed the company of all of the cats except one and is a neutered, 4-year-old brown Tabby. He can currently be found hanging out in the free roam room with several other cats. Slinky is missing an eye and his former owner says to approach him slowly on his blind side.

It looks like Slinky had a rough start in life, but now he has a second chance to be in a home and be loved and protected. Could you be the hero in this story and give Slinky a chance at the wonderful life he deserves.
