Pets Of The Week: Meet Millie & Zuzu

Millie arrived at the shelter as an injured stray 1 month ago. This poor girl had a huge wound on her face that was so painful and infected she couldn’t eat or even see out of her right eye. After several weeks of treatment and surgeries, the wound has healed, and this lovely little one is ready to find her forever home. She’s very affectionate and now that she feels better we see how super playful she is. She’s very trusting of people and is an easy cat to handle. We’re not sure what happened to her, but she has 100 percent bounced back and is ready to find her family! Española Humane is open to walk-in adopters Read More
