Pet of the Week

Arya, a 2 ½-year-old spayed domestic shorthair mix, is a gorgeous, sweet kitty who enjoys attention and hanging out. She is curious about everything and is very sensitive to the world around her, but loud noises make her nervous – so we think she’d be best in a home without any other animals. She’s very affectionate and loves being petted, and she has such a great personality. She will need a good scratching post to keep her claws in top shape. Your veterinarian can show you how to trim the claws regularly to cut down on inappropriate scratching. Scratching is natural for cats, so keeping their claws short and giving them appropriate places to scratch is helping to fulfill their needs. If you are in search of an affectionate, capable kitty to hang with you, Arya may be your kitty. She has been microchipped and dewormed. She will be available at 11 a.m. today at the Atlanta Humane Society Mansell Campus, 1565 Mansell Road, Alpharetta, GA 30009. Look at all our available pets at www.atlantahumane.org.
