Hi! My name is Perry

Meet Perry, a three-year-old mini-panther who carries his history with a quiet, rugged grace. He arrived at the shelter with battle scars from a difficult life on the streets, but he has spent his recovery proving that his tough exterior was just a shield for a heart of pure gold. As he heals, Perry has officially retired from his days as a street warrior and fully embraced his new calling as a professional lounge enthusiast. Those once-intimidating scars are now just marks of his resilience, fading into his sleek black fur as he settles into the safety and comfort of indoor life.
