Meet Basil, a beautiful tortie with a gorgeous blend of black and gold, a little pink nose and elegantly crossed paws. She looks like she has just asked to see the menu and is patiently waiting for you to explain why there is no tuna special.

Whether you say “BAY-zil” or “BAZ-il,” this lovely girl has no interest in an international pronunciation dispute. You may call her either, provided you also call her for dinner. With that wonderfully marbled coat, she has already perfected her own signature seasoning.

Basil is looking for a loving home where she can settle in at her own pace and let her personality unfold. A comfortable bed, kind company and a chance to feel safe are a lovely recipe for a fresh start. Come meet Basil, your home might be missing just this one ingredient.
