Pet of the week - Carmen

From pound puppies to purebred cats, Patch spotlights pets who enjoy what Shoreline/Lake Forest Park has to offer. For some cats, like this week’s pet Carmen, all they need is a loving and safe home.

This less than a year old kitty is a wide eyed, bushy tailed teenager. She is looking for her forever home.

Carmen is lively and rambunctious with loads of energy. Her best fit would be a fun, active family to keep her entertained….and put some spunk back into her new family’s life.

The pretty, short haired tortoiseshell has a huge purrrrr and is quite friendly when she takes a break from playtime.

She would do best in a home with older children or adults who are around a lot to keep her entertained.

Visit Carmen and see if he is a match for you.
