About Francesca

Francesca is an endearing and social girl who embodies good manners. She doesn't jump on people or steal food from the table and patiently waits for an invitation to join you on the couch or bed. Already crate trained, she knows commands like "sit" and "outside" and handles bath time like a champ. While she’s on the timid side, she has gradually warmed up to being handled, although she was initially fearful of having her paws and backside touched. The resident cats find her a bit intimidating, and they often hiss at her, though Frannie remains sweet and calm around them. Above all, she adores human affection and loves nothing more than snuggling up close for some quality time. Your chance to share a life with Francesca is just a click away.
