Jello, the Cat Marshall, aka Office Manager
Hi, my name is Jello, and I am the office manager at Little Tokyo Pet Clinic. My daily schedule is very busy because I supervise many things: my cat tower, my food and water bowls, my plush bed, and all of my toys. But most importantly, you may be interested to know that my blood type is A, I am Negative for Leukemia/Heartworm/FIV, and I work hard to stay healthy so that I can donate my precious blood for my fellow felines in need. And yes, physical health is very important to me, but I cannot control my appetite and am currently on a Weight Management Program. Please know I take great pride in making sure that all of my animal friends here are being treated with tender love and care.
