Meet Binx the Talkative Friendly Cat, Iowa City Adopt this Pet of the Week

Meet Binx the cat who loves to be loving on her own schedule.


This week Jen Read, veterinarian technician at the Iowa City Animal Shelter, introduces Binx the cat. Read says that Binx is a loving cat who likes to get and give affection on her own terms. For example, although she doesn't much like being picked up and held, she does like being a lap cat and receiving petting. Binx is also a very vocal cat and likes to let everyone know what is on her mind.
