Cricket (No. F19-0011) is a wonderful senior kitty, approximately 15 years old. She has some arthritis and needs kitty stairs or ramps to make getting on the bed or sofa for cuddles safe and easy. She loves to eat and play with her mouse-on-a-stick toy. She enjoys lap time and being petted. We’re positive there’s a home out there for this sweetheart of a senior. Is it yours? She is spayed and has her shots. She’s available for adoption at the Good Shepherd Animal Shelter on Highway 62 east of Eureka Springs. The shelter is open noon to 5 p.m. every day but Tuesday and Wednesday. For more information, call 479-253-9188.
