Rosina, a Special Cat

 Just over a year old, Rosina is a sweet, chatty girl who loves being near her people. She's not a lap cat, but she'll happily curl up right beside you and soak up all the pets (Belly rubs are favorite!). Playful and affectionate, she prefers to be your one-and-only feline, but does great with small dogs. Looking for a loyal little shadow? Rosina's your girl!
