See Piper, a "special needs" cat, who's needs a furr-ever home, tomorrow at Petco Great Hills location


from petfinder.com
Hi I'm Piper and I'm an 10 month old DSH Russian Blue girl. I like to snuggle but I also like to wrestle with my siblings and climb the cat towers. I'm easygoing and could be in a home with other cats or dogs. I'm healthy and have been spayed and microchipped so I'm ready to go. I have just been diagnosed with "Wobbly kitten syndrome" also known as cerebellar hypoplasia. It sounds scarey but all it means is that I walk funny and am a little bit uncoordinated. I'll live just as long as any other kitty, and don't need any extra special care. Come see me at Petco at Great Hills and 183 on Sunday from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. or email me_pon@hotmail.com . Piper is up-to-date with routine shots and house trained. She is being fostered by Cats' Angels, Inc. of Austin.
