Quill has a new trick he would like to show everyone! He would love to show you in person.Here is Quill's bio, if you are interested in this handsome boy:
I am a affectionate boy who loves a good lap to curl up on. If you come into my room at the shelter I’ll be sure to let you know that I’m the next one you should pay attention to. I’ll be a loving companion, it may take me a little bit to adjust to a new environment, so a quieter home without other cats would be preferred. Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.
TAILS OF SUCCESS: Here's an update from Orchid....Hi! Me and my roommate adopted a cat named Orchid from the mason city animal shelter a few months ago and I want to thank you all again for the experience and helping us find our third (and our mutually favorite) roommate.
She's having a great time in Ames meeting a ton of new people (and getting a lot of pets and love from all of them).
Much love,
