A few weeks ago, Long Beach Animal Care Services took in over 70 cats from a hoarding situation. Diesela, a pretty 2-year-old brown tabby, was one of them. It took her a little while to get used to her new situation—a kennel all to herself and a number of admiring volunteers, staff members and visitors, all wanting to pet her and hold her. She was shy and scared at first, but now, she’ll walk right onto a lap and insist on attention! If you own a lap that’s just asking for a cat, Diesela’s your girl! Make a New Year’s resolution to adopt or foster her! To do that, email PetAdopt@longbeach.gov to speed the process, or call (562) 570-7387. Better yet, meet her in person at Long Beach Animal Care Services, 7700 E. Spring St., Long Beach, at entrance to El Dorado Park (no parking fee for shelter visitors). Visiting hours are Wednesday–Friday, 10 a.m.–5:30 p.m., and Saturday–Sunday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m. Ask for ID#A752258.
