SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Sasha
Our SPCA Pet of the Day is Sasha.
"I am super sweet and affectionate, but happy with my own company if you need to go out or to work. I am looking for a quiet home with a warm sunny spot so I can soak up the sun and dream. I don't really like sharing my space with other cats, so a home without them would be ideal. I am an older cat, so a home without other animals would be best. I am just looking for a home and I promise not to be a burden. I only ask if someone could brush me once and a while and talk kindly to me."
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
