Cat of the week
Adel is a sweet kitty that likes her space. She likes pets, treats and kitty massages, but she would be just as content to watch birds out the window. She takes a bit to warm up to someone, but once she does she will be your best friend and lap warmer on cold winter evenings. She would prefer to be the only queen in her castle.
