Adoptable Pet of the Day: Joy

April 14, 2009

Joy came into the shelter on a cruelty and neglect seizure. She was found, along with 16 other cats, on a screened porch. There was no food and what little water they had left was completely frozen. Their litter boxes were filled with frozen urine and the porch was covered in feces. Of the 17 cats that were removed, Joy and her friend Regis were the only two friendly cats. Regis has since been adopted but Joy is now living in one of the cat rooms at the shelter and loving her new life. Joy is a little reserved and waits for you to come to her. Once you start petting her though she becomes very affectionate.
