Kitty
Her Story
Kitty is not available for adoption. She is our first wildlife rescue. She is a red eared slider that was rescued after being hit by a car in Aug 2021. Our founder has been caring for her and trying to fix her shell. She still has a lot of healing to do, but we hope to release her back into the wild next summer.
