Fun Fact: “This is Peanut, I adopted her after she had three kittens on my fr t porch. I brought them all in. After the kittens were old enough each found wonderful forever homes. I had Peanut spade and made her an indoor cat. She and my 12 year old cat, Lola Bean get along pretty well. The orange carrot under her one paw is her very favorite, but she just had to have Lola Bean’s favorite toy as well.”
