Hello, I'm Polly

Our favorite thing about Polly is how loving and spunky she is! 

Polly's Story

We adopted Polly from PAWS on New Year’s Eve and have decided to keep her name. There are so many funny anecdotes and first times to share; here are some of my favorites:

 

  • The first day we brought Polly home, she was of course a bit frightened and was hiding under our bathroom sink. It was our dog, Charlie, who patiently waited next to the sink and eventually got her to come out. They now have a very standard older brother/younger sister relationship! Polly just wants to do whatever he is doing, including playing fetch and she also eats exactly when he does, begs for treats when he does, etc.
  • Polly is starting to find her meow. She really gets revved up before she tries, too!
  • She LOVES playing with this feather wand that my nieces gave her, and she will often jump very high and do backflips.
  • She is obsessed with computers and will sit on an open one whenever the opportunity arises.
  • She recently met my cousin’s Bernese Mountain Dog and paid no mind to their size difference.
  • Our favorite thing about Polly is how loving and spunky she is! She is very social, loves the dog, and loves snuggling with us. But she’s also a loveable troublemaker!
