About Harietta

Meet Harietta, a striking calico with extra-soft, flowing fur and a short stubby tail. She was once mistaken for a neighborhood cat, but after her abandonment came to light, it was clear why she nervously hid and devoured every meal as if it might be her last. Time and patience have helped her blossom—Harietta now seeks out gentle affection, loves being stroked, and shows every sign of becoming a devoted companion for someone steady and kind. Harietta needs a quiet home where sudden noises and busy activity won’t overwhelm her. Instead, she wants a place filled with calm and lots of attention. She’s particularly sensitive to loud sounds and wand toys, but relishes being petted and brushed, which is important for her lush, long coat. She has good litterbox habits and is fully vetted. If you’re looking for a calm and deeply affectionate feline, Harietta will reward patience with endless love. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
