About Harlan

Harlan is a chunky girl with a past full of challenges, but she's ready to embrace a brighter future. Initially thought to be feral, she lived amongst a feral cat colony for years until a winter crisis pushed her to seek warmth and safety indoors. Luckily, she was rescued just in time. Despite her rough beginnings, Harlan has shown her true colors as a loving and sociable companion. She enjoys the gentle touch of human hands and welcomes pets, though she's not quite the lap cat. Harlan gets along well with other cats and has a laid-back demeanor, making her an excellent choice for someone looking for a furry friend. Her journey has been tough, but now she’s eager to find a forever home where she can shine. If you're interested in welcoming Harlan into your family, don't hesitate to start the adoption process.
