Berkshire Humane Society Pet of the Week: Meet Gracie
Every Wednesday at 8:30 we're joined by John Perreault, Executive Director of the Berkshire Humane Society to discuss all the happenings at their Barker Road facility, plus talk about their Pet of the Week.
This week's Pet of the Week is Gracie, is a beautiful 3-year-old domestic medium hair cat. Gracie was brought in to Berkshire Humane Society last fall after her previous owner had abandoned her in the summer.
Gracie has never lived with children, so probably would do best in a home with older children and adults. She does not get along with dogs. If you are interested in adopting this black beauty, please call Berkshire Humane Society’s feline department at 413-447-7878, extension 124.
