About Harriet
Harriet is a thoughtful soul who values her independence and keeps tight bonds with her sisters Heather and Heidi. Having come from a hoarding background, she's still getting the hang of home comforts and watching life unfold from a safe spot. Harriet isn't ready for cuddles or a lot of handling—she'd much rather keep her distance, peering out from her hideaway when the mood strikes. If you've got tube treats, though, expect her curiosity to peek through, along with a measured approach in your direction. She's particularly skilled at the firm-yet-polite stare to let you know when it's treat time. For Harriet, a calm environment is best—one where patience and gentleness are the rule and where she'll have another friendly cat around for support. She uses her litter box flawlessly, is spayed, and has her vaccinations current. While she keeps an air of mystery, Harriet becomes more trusting with steady care and, of course, snacks. She’ll need to go home with one of her siblings or join a household with another cat already there to help her settle. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
