About Little Miss Harriet!

Little Miss Harriet! arrived at the rescue in late January. She’s about a year old and has settled in after her spay surgery, gained a bit of healthy weight, and left her flea troubles in the past. Harriet has a real playful streak—you’ll find her darting around, especially now that she’s testing out more space alongside three other cats. She’s adapted well and enjoys their company. Harriet needs an experienced adopter who understands it might take her a little while to warm up. She isn’t an instant cuddler, but with some time and patience, she leans into pets and shows her affectionate side. If you’re willing to let her adjust at her own pace, she’ll repay you with loyalty and plenty of play. Give her the chance she deserves. Start your journey together! Apply now.
