ADOPT A FRIEND - ADOPT CARL WHO LOVES HIS BELLY RUBBED
ADOPT A FRIEND - ADOPT CARL
Why adopt Carl????? Well, Carl is a shy little kitty, but once he warms up to you, which doesn't take long, he loves to roll over on his back and get "belly rubs". He will gladly show his affection by rubbing on you and loving you.Carl came in to the Prince George's Animal Shelter as a stray on December 3rd, 2013 and is still a little shy but is happy to be safe and warm for now. He is patiently waiting for a forever home, hopefully that is you!

TIP OF THE WEEK
Behavior
Cats need to sleep 12 to 16 hours per day and require a comfortable bed in a quiet location to relax. Play with your cat regularly to keep it well exercised and to bond with it. Use toys on string or ones containing catnip, an herb that cats love, to attract its attention and provide it with a stimulating item to pounce on. Cats also require regular trips to the veterinarian for health checkups and vaccinations required by law. The ASPCA recommends that you spay or neuter your cat to prevent it from producing litters of kittens or developing health problems later in life. Play with your cat only if it is not sleeping or it appears agitated with its ears down or tail wagging. Angry cats hiss, so give your cat some time alone if it does this.
