Vander's Story

Vander is our big black and white boy, looking for a forever home. He came with Valentine and Viggy, after being abandoned in a dirty apartment. He is a very friendly and affectionate guy! He is very excited to meet new people and gets lots of pets. Like his friend Viggy, he is vocal and always asking us to give him attention. Would you like to meet him and give him his second chance? Call us!<br/>D.O.B: 12-5-24
