POTW: Bluebell
Hello there! My name is Bluebell (84593) and I'm a sweet petite girl searching for my forever home and family. I can be very shy around new people and places, but with a little patience and a lot of tender love and care I will become much more confident. Once I'm comfortable I enjoy gentle petting all over, and will let you know when I've had enough, gently but firmly of course. I love to chase toys around, especially laser lights! I am ready for an adult, cat savvy guardian who will love me for my affectionate nature and respect my independent spirit. If I sound like the perfect kitty companion for you, ask to meet me today. Visit the Humane Society Silicon Valley, 901 Ames Ave., Milpitas, or call (408) 262-2133.
