Adoption Spotlight: Rowan
"Hi! My name is Rowan, and I'm a big, furry, gentle soul. I'm only two, but have wisdom beyond my years - just take a look into my beautiful pale green eyes. I love attention, and will let you know with purrs. I'm mellow enough that I sat and posed for the nice lady who came to take my picture, but I do love my catnip toys!" Learn more »
