Darcy is your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet of The Week

She watches birds.

Darcy is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 3 year old, 8 pound, female, Domestic Short Hair cat with a Red Tabby coat.

She’s a lady who loves to cuddle and have her chin scratched. She loves her cat toys and isn’t afraid to pounce on them. When there’s nothing else going on, Darcy will find a high spot where she can hang out, perch, and watch birds.

Darcy was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society from another shelter through the Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS) program.
