Adoptable Pet of the Week: Callie

Give a warm welcome to the southern belle that is Callie, the newest Adoptable Pet of the Week!

This beautiful 10-year-old girl is looking for a friend to shower her with pets.

Callie’s friends at Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation had this to say:

Callie is a true southern belle — brought from Alabama for a new life in the North, all she wants is a nice soft surface to sit on and a friend or two to pet her.

She politely asks for pets (taps your arm) and also drinks with her paws (like a lady). During the day she’s a very low energy cat, but at night she will trot right up to you to make sure you pet her nice and good.

Callie doesn’t need a lot of space, she’s happy with 2-3 spots to nap in and would do well in an apartment.

Can you give Callie enough pets? Read her complete profile to learn more and to see how Callie spends her day, check out her Instagram @spookyfosterkitty.

Want your pet to be considered for the Arlington Pet of the Week? Email [email protected] with a 2-3 paragraph bio and at least 3-4 horizontally-oriented photos of your pet. Please don’t send vertical photos — they don’t fit in our photo galleries!
