About Harriet

Meet Harriet, a charming and cuddly cat who radiates friendliness. She seamlessly adapts to new surroundings, appreciates human affection, and is known for her abundant purring. Harriet is not only calm but also curious around dogs, quickly forming a bond with her foster brother. This resilient girl was found alone in Abolitionist Park, Brooklyn, where she bravely survived for several months. Once brought indoors, she melted into the arms of her rescuers, showcasing her loving nature. Harriet would thrive in a home with or without other cats, making her a wonderful first pet for new adopters, or an excellent companion for families with children and other pets. She's fully vetted: spayed, vaccinated, flea and parasite-free, litter-trained, and microchipped. Ready to explore a new life with a loving family? Click apply to start the adoption process.
