VIDEO: Meet Hemmy, Iowa City Patch's Adopt this Pet of the Week (ADOPTED)

Every Saturday we feature another animal at the Iowa City Animal Shelter who is need of a good home. This week, we meet Hemmy, a bouncy black cat that loves chasing mice and having conversations.

This week, Willa Hamilton, Iowa City Animal Services Officer at the Iowa City Animal Shelter, introduces us to Hemmy, a talkative black cat that likes to explore, chase toy mice, and socialize. Hamilton said Hemmy is a young cat who has a big personality and is a favorite at the shelter.
