About Perla

Meet Perla, a beautiful cat whose charm is as striking as her jet-black, short-hair coat. Estimated to be between five to seven years old, Perla arrived at our cat center needing help after being found abandoned. She quickly became a favorite among the volunteers who couldn’t resist her affectionate nature. Perla thrives on gentle chin and head rubs, and she truly melts under loving attention. Although she’s a little overweight and has a squinty eye, her calm demeanor makes her delightful company. Perla seems to prefer being the only cat in her kingdom; she likely wants to soak up all the attention and love for herself. She has already been spayed and is properly vaccinated. This gentle girl would flourish in a caring home where she can feel safe and cherished. Ready to meet Perla? Click apply to start the adoption process.
