About Nellie (CAT FRIENDLY)

Hi there! My name is Nellie, and I'm a sweet, 4-year-old Shepherd mix gal who was found wandering near a busy road. Thankfully, some wonderful people saved me and got me all vetted and ready for my forever home! I'm a little timid at first, but once I warm up, I'm incredibly affectionate. A few tasty treats will make me your best friend in no time! I’m great with kids and resident dogs, and I’m also a friendly kitty companion!

Ideal Home

I’m looking for a family to go on walks with, play in a safe yard, and shower me with lots of love and tummy rubs. I dream of being treated like the princess I am!

Ongoing Health

I am fully vetted, up-to-date on vaccinations, heart-worm tested, and on monthly preventatives. I am also spayed.

Training & Support

I know how to sit and wait for my food. I'm a good car rider and sleep quietly at night. I've been working on my leash training, and it's going well! I would love a family that can continue my obedience refresher and help me grow.
