🐾 Pin Up Pet of the Week 🐾

Meet Louie 💜 – a very handsome 8-month-old Tonkinese with a personality just as charming as his good looks!

Louie visited us recently for his desexing procedure, and we’re so proud of how brave he was throughout his day with us. From cuddles to recovery, he handled it like a superstar ⭐
