This Pretty Kitty, Potato, I Looking For A Forever Home

Our Pet of the Week this week is a pretty kitty named Potato.

According to Annie Chalmers, the Medical Tech at the SPCA of Hancock County, this gal is great and deserves a good home.

"Potato is a cute 3-year-old short-haired tuxedo cat. She has brilliant green eyes and a white mustache and goatee."

Potato was an overworked momma when she found herself at the shelter. But now that her babies have all flown the coup (they were all adopted out to loving families) she's really enjoying her footloose and fancy-free life.

"Potato has a spunky and sweet personality. She loves to play with toy mice and carry them around. Potato’s favorite things are large cushy beds and fuzzy cat toys. "

"When she came into the shelter, she had nine kittens to try to take care of. Since being here, all of her kittens have been adopted leaving her behind still waiting for her forever home."

All around, a delightful companion, Chalmers says while some strays can be a little reserved and standoffish,  Potato is simply the sweetest and gets along with everyone.

"She was from stray holding so we aren’t sure of her past, but she is an amazing cat who has a lot of potential. She gets along great with other cats after an introduction. "

If you're feeling in the mood to give, the SPCA recently had an influx of pregnant mom cats make their way to the shelter and could use some supplies. Click here to check out what's on their wishlist.
