Update: Desert Rose was adopted on October 23rd! Bigger dogs, like Desert Rose , eagerly await daily visitors, often with wagging tails and smiles. But the truth is that most people walk right past them and head for the areas where smaller dogs and Toy breeds are kenneled.

Update: Desert Rose was adopted on August 21st! Desert Rose is shy with new people, but capable of tremendous warmth with those she knows and trusts. She is inquisitive and athletic, a zippy runner, but equally pleased to curl up on the couch with you and watch TV. Desert Rose is a dusty brown tabby with spots, spayed female, 2 years young. She is polydactyl -- she has extra toes that give her paws a glove-like appearance. We rescued Desert Rose when she was abandoned by her previous owner. She is one of 200 rescued, spayed/neutered cats for adoption in Nevada SPCA's free-roaming Cat Condo playrooms.
