Meet our Pet of the Week Lyla. She's a 4-year-old spayed, tiger striped domestic short hair.
Lyla has big amber eyes that match the specks of golden color in her fur coat. She has been through rough times and lost her home, but she firmly believes that better times lie ahead.
While she is adjusting to life at the shelter with all its constant commotion, she usually looks for a quiet spot to get away from the noise - and sometimes this spot is under a heavy pillow or blanket.
However, she still trusts and likes people; just sit down near her and she will soon come out of her little house and make a beeline for your lap.
Once settled in, she makes herself into nice furry ball and gazes up at you with her big eyes. This cute round girl has lived with other cats before, so if you have a resident kitty or two, she should do well with them after proper introductions, but she probably would not object to being the only spoiled and pampered child!
Lyla is up for adoption at the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, and if you adopt her, her initial exam is free compliments of our Pet Connections' vet sponsors:
Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is a limited-access humane society and provides services to more than 15,000 cats, dogs, puppies and kittens each year. Operating continuously since 1925, we have been positively impacting animal welfare and addressing overpopulation in Palm Beach County through a variety of services.
Through the adoption and spay/neuter programs, our vision is to ensure that there are no homeless animals and every animal has a home in Palm Beach County.
Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, Humane Society of the Palm Beaches, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, receiving no state or federal funding. It is dependent exclusively upon private donations, grants, bequests and fundraising events to provide quality programs and services to the community. Your donations directly support the services and programs in place to help animals in need.
Our mission is to provide shelter to lost, homeless and unwanted animals; to furnish medical and other services for the care of companion animals; to care for, protect, and find quality homes for homeless and neglected animals; to advocate animal welfare, community involvement and education to further the bond between people and animals, for the mutual benefit of both.
