In the house, Ferrell tends to seek out the closest corner to hide in when she's out and about. Although she's not yet house-trained, but her foster family is diligently working on it. Despite her initial reserve, Ferrell is a calm companion who enjoys sitting on the couch, watching TV, and relaxing with her people in the evenings.

They may be purebred, a highly desirable breed, small in size fully grown, etc. These fees allow them to act as patrons to other pets in our care who may not be as adoptable, or have ongoing costs for medical care, contributing to a longer time in rescue, and therefore a higher cost for us to care for them.
