Sally is a 7-year-old female tortoiseshell. She has also waited on a home a long time longer than any other VHS animal, likely because of her age! She is super playful and gets along fine with other cats. She can be a little shy because she’s been in the shelter so long so she needs someone who can peel back the “onion†of her personality. Sally’s $40 adoption fee includes her spay, microchip, vaccines, and more. Contact Vanderburgh Humane at (812) 426-2563 for adoption details!
