A volunteer writes: I’ll spice up your family, my name is Ginger. I’m a vibrant colored Tortie. Here I come, rubbing against the cage for your attention. I am a curious girl, love looking around at all the sites. I see you there, come join me and we can look at each other. Watching you with my beautiful green eyes, see my unique face, a patch of tan against my dark face. I’m an active girl looking for fun. Come play with me and we can start a great friendship. I hope to put a smile on your face.
