HELP OUT A YOUNGSTER….

Gizzy is a gorgeous 1-year-old dilute sortie. She is very playful and sweet!

She is ready to find her loving forever family!

She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and tested negative for FeLV & FIV.

She is an indoor cat only for their safety. No declawing is allowed.

Adoption event: Every Saturday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. or by appointment at the Constance McCullough House, 84 N.W. 2nd St., Ontario.
