Found a home, September 2006
Beauty, spayed female
Age: 2 or 3 years
Persian Himalaya purebred
The blue-eyed Beauty was abandoned, probably by her owners, near the shelter gate. The Rehovot Society has no cattery, so Beauty had to be put up in the dog shelter, in the company of more than 100 dogs. A true aristocrat, she shows no sign that the fact bothers her, even though she must constantly hear the barking of dozens of dogs. She lives in the Society’s education building, and even when dogs enter the room, she doesn’t seem to mind. But who knows, it’s quite possible that the presence of so many dogs does cause her certain stress. We are urgently looking for a home for Beauty, since in the long-term, a dog shelter is no place for a cat!
Once you get to know Beauty, it’s hard not to fall in love with her, and not just because of her looks – she’s such a calm and gentle cat. She’s been declawed, a practice that’s been outlawed in the UK, but unfortunately not in Israel.
