*Meow! I am available for adoption at 71 Oglethorpe St NW. Come meet me from 12 - 7 PM daily.With a name like Royalty Sunshine, you know good things are coming your way! This handsome tabby`s owner could no longer care for him, so he is a little confused but is working on being brave. Royalty will benefit from a patient adopter who gives him the time he needs to get used to his new home. We know he will turn on the charm when he`s ready and be at your side for movies, naps, and any trip to the kitchen. If you are looking for a new furry member of the family, please stop by and meet Royalty Sunshine today.
