Shelter: BC SPCA - Nelson Branch Animal ID: 535790 Birthdate: September 18, 2011 - Senior Spayed/Neutered: No Female Meet Yara, a super sweet long-haired blue senior cat who was found between two houses looking in bad shape. After an emergent vet visit, it turned out her eye condition makes her look ill. She is healthy other than being a bit overweight. She has a cute rollie pollie look because she has a short, petite body yet her hair is long and poofs out. She has the cutest, almost saucy walk. She's talkative, yet her soft quiet meow is almost silent. You just see her mouth moving open and shut. While she's beautiful, her personality is her best feature. She's so friendly and engaging, loving the pets and grooming. Whoever brings Yara home will be blessed with a wonderful cat. ?In order to protect the health of our staff, volunteers and members of the public during the COVID-19 pandemic, we are prioritizing local applications and have made changes to our adoption process. 1.
