Melody (formerly known as Red Velvet) is our foster fail from Operation Silent Night 2015. She is a bit quirky - frightened by noises like plastic bags and shy with strangers - but she gives great tail hugs, head bumps and even likes me to pick her up and hold her (I am her human). Her favorite pastimes are climbing her perch for a treat, racing after her fish toy, and pouncing on hidden objects. We are thankful she was first rescued by RAL from Petersburg Animal Shelter and then found her way to our home. Her sister, Gracie, is also thankful, although she doesn't like to admit it. Please support RAL's efforts to care for animals in need!
