Tortoiseshell Cats Picture of the Week: Audrey

My beautiful 5-year-old Tortoiseshell and white cat's name is Audrey. I adopted her just over a year ago from a local shelter. She had been underfed and abused in her last "home", so she was a bit shy and scared when she came to a real home with me. She soon learned trust and is such a happy cat and I just can't picture my life without her. Aud is feisty and playful and loves playing with her good buddies seen in this picture. But her favorite activity is stretching out in the sun for a good nap.
