Meet Mackenzie! She is a 2 year old Scottish fold. Don’t let that grumpy face fool you, she is a Gem and LOVES attention. I am excited to talk about her because is she not only cute and sweet but she is what people would say is a “pure breed” or “designer breed” pet. Often people don’t think about shelters when they are looking for a specific breed of animal. So I wanted to show you that yes you can find one. We often get these pets in for varies reasons and here is one now! She must be the only pet and unsure about children, so we would be willing to talk to your family and set up a greeting with Mackenzie. For more info on Mackenzie or any of our available pets please visit at CT humane.org/adopt and apply online.
