Louise Needs a Caring Home

Will you adopt Louise?

[Editor's note: The following column was submitted by Lots of Love Cat Rescue.] As the temperature drops and winter takes its frigid hold, cat rescue people don’t sleep well. We hear the wind whipping and worry about the homeless kittens and cats outside.
