About Lark

Meet Lark! This charming cat is on the lookout for a feline friend to join him in his forever home. Lark has quite the unique trait, with enough toes to make anyone smile. He was rescued as a stray and initially had a rough patch, but he's come a long way. It may take him a few moments to warm up, but with a little chat and some tasty treats, he’ll soon share gentle blinks and soft purrs. It's important to let Lark adjust at his own pace, and with time, he’ll be making delightful biscuits with those many toes just for you. Lark has been spayed, is up to date on vaccinations, and has been microchipped. Adopters are welcome from NH, RI, CT, and NY, but be mindful that same-day adoptions aren't possible due to state paperwork.
