Silk (A12413179), found on the streets, is a 5- to 10-year-old girl who is frightened in the noisy shelter. You can see the fear in her eyes in the pictures. She stays at the back of her cage, but move at her pace, and you will see what a gentle, sweet girl she can be! This beautiful tortie girl is spayed and ready to go home today.

These animals are located at Philadelphia’s animal control shelter, ACCT. They need immediate adoption or foster care.

Don’t forget to check out the weekly Animal Care & Control event at the Petsmart in Haldeman Plaza, where you can learn more about adoption and foster care, and meet some animals who need a good home.
