Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, there! My name is Clairsse. I was rescued from a very bad life and given a second chance in a nice, warm, loving home. Unfortunately, my family is moving and they can’t take me or my brothers and sisters. I’m not sure why, but we are all very sad.
I haven’t been with Henrico Humane Society that long and I’m still learning how to be in a new environment. My foster mom gives me lots of pets and snuggles, which I really love. There are dogs here, and they’re ok but definitely not as fun as cats. I love wrestling, playing or napping with other cats!
I may be a tiny cat, but I’m mighty! I’m also polydactyl, which means I have more toes than normal cats; I’m very special! I’m also declawed on my front paws, so I’ll always need to be an indoor kitty.
I’d do well in a house with other cats, maybe a dog and older children.
If you'd like to meet me, please email cats@henricohumane.org to setup a visit. Don't forget to tell them you want to meet Clarisse!
If you're not sure which cat you're interested in or are just beginning to search for a companion, our adoption coordinators can help! Just fill out a short questionnaire at: www.henricohumane.org/adopt/cat-adoption-questionnaire/ that will help us match you with our wonderful cats then visit us at our Adoption Stand at West Broad Petco (next to Trader Joe's) every Saturday from 11:00 to 3:00.
