PET OF THE WEEK: Shy but lovable

Tacoma-Pierce County Humane Society describes one of its featured pets for adoption: “Meet Toothless, a gentle, loving kitty who will bloom under your care. She is very shy and frightened but has been making great strides in warming up. She enjoys petting and purrs and gives head butts to show her appreciation. Toothless is looking for a quiet home with a patient family that will push her to grow while respecting her limits. She needs to be loved and petted, but also allowed to have her space. A home with older children might be okay if they are understanding of her shy nature. She could potentially do well in a home with other cats who could show her how to behave.” #522514
