What shall we say of Coconut? She is too young for pina coladas, although she will probably get carded all her life. She bears little resemblance to the Hostess confection, although pink is her color. She has not been shredded, although life’s teeth certainly tried.

Harriet, age 16, was once forgotten and alone. A car accident left her with life-threatening
injuries. But the best days of Harriet’s life were ahead: she became a Tabby’s Place cat.
Surgery saved her life, and love mended her broken heart. Today, this shaggy sweetheart
