Meet Willow, an adorable little domestic shorthair mix kitty with soft fur that changes color from gray to tan to white. She is approaching 4 years of age and weighs a healthy 9 pounds. Willow is a sweet and snuggly little cat, which is heartwarming when you learn that she was rescued from a bad situation by the SPCA of Texas. She would prefer to meet with any children under the age of 12 before committing to a new home with them. She would also love to be taken in by a family that already has a cat in place to help her learn the ropes. She is patiently waiting at the Jan Rees-Jones Animal Care Center in Dallas.

The adoption fee for adult dogs and cats is normally $75 adoption. Puppies and kittens under the age of six months are $150. Adoption fees vary for small mammals, equestrian and livestock.
