Mazie

"Hi, my name's Mazie! I'm an orange tabby girl with the cutest splotches of white on my chest, paws, and nose. Playtime is my favorite part of the day because I have a lot of energy to get out of my system. When I was a kitten I gravitated towards playing with the owner's young child, so a playmate would be most preferred for me! I'm a great cat for both adults and children—you can't go wrong! Interested in meeting me? Find out more here!"

"Hello, I'm Lacy! I may be a kitten, but I'm already growing into my features quite nicely—just look at my whiskers! I'm well-behaved and would get along wonderfully with kids and other cats. Not much else is known about me, so you'll have to meet me in person to find out. You won't regret it, that's for sure! Will you give me a chance? Check out more info here!"
