About Belle

Being front-declawed, it’s important that she stays strictly indoors. Belle doesn’t enjoy being picked up or having her stomach touched; her way of showing affection is through quiet companionship rather than physical contact. She prefers having her own space and would thrive best as the only pet, allowing her to reign as the sole queen of her castle. Though she may take her time warming up to new people, those who offer her the gentle patience she needs will discover a loyal and steady friend. With her lovely calico coat and medium size, Belle is ready to find her forever home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
