Poppyseed is a tiny 5-pound sweetheart with a gentle soul and the kindest little heart. This delicate girl can be a bit timid at first, but once she feels safe, her true nature shines -- soft, loving, and completely devoted to her person.

She absolutely loves being held and finds her greatest comfort curled up in warm arms or nestled close by your side. Poppyseed isn't the type to demand attention --s he quietly waits, hoping for a gentle touch or a reassuring voice, and melts instantly into affection when she gets it.

Because of her sensitive nature, she would thrive in a calm, patient home where she can decompress from her time at the shelter. Poppyseed may be small, but her capacity for love is truly big.

Poppy joins POMDR from Hitchcock Road Animal Services in Salinas where she was found stray.
