Clover is believed to be between 1 & 3 yrs old. Clover was dumped on a farm. When we rescued her, she weighed only 3 pounds. She had to be shaved due to excessive matting. She has come a long way and has learned to trust again. She is not a lap cat. She does not like to be held. She does like to be pet, loves to play laser light and sleep on the cat tree. She will lay with you on the couch but never on you. She is very fond of dogs and does well with other cats. If you are looking for a beautiful, independent, dog loving companion- Clover is the girl for you! Would do best in a home with older children who will not chase her or try to pick her up.
