Kelley the Adoption Counselor discovered Handsome, who is most likely a purebread Persian, while taking a batch of our kitties to get spayed. She looked into his amazing orange eyes and fell instantly in love. She found out from the caretaker that he showed up at a feral colony in Southeast DC during the February snow storms. His fur was so badly matted it was like hard bricks all over his body. Despite the pain he must have been in from the mats pulling on his skin, he has the sweetest disposition. He loves to be scritched and cuddled (and opens and closes his paws and nuzzles your hands when you snuggle him). Handsome doesn't love his current hair style, but his long, luxurious fur will grow back in soon. He needs an owner who is willing to pamper him properly with all of his grooming needs.
