Are you looking for a sweet, lovable kitty to sit on your lap and soak up every bit of love and affection you can offer? If so, then Riley is your girl! This gentle tabby is a little over a year old, and originally entered the Wolf Creek Pet Adoption Center as a stray mama cat with her litter of kittens. Now, she's a thriving lady who has adjusted well to people. She's a little bit chubby, so Riley's future family may need to keep an eye on her weight, but outside of that, she's a happy, healthy cat who is ready to settle down with her “furever” family. Riley is friendly and trusting, and loves being the center of attention! Like all the cats at Wolf Creek, Riley is up-to-date on her shots, has been spayed and is microchipped. Call the center today to arrange a playdate with this sweet kitty! 6 • JEFFERSON COUNTY JOURNAL • FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2018 COMMUNITY NEWS Halloween Fun in Downtown Monticello
