Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sophie has had a rough time of it ...she landed in a high kill shelter after her elderly owner died. She was quickly adopted by a family with young children. But their noise and high activity level sent her hiding under the nearest piece of furniture and they decided to return her. All the while, Sophie, estimated to be 4 yrs old, just wanted a calm home where she could feel safe and secure and a lap to sit on. Maybe yours? Meet this very sweet flat-faced girl in her Burke, VA foster home.
Persian cats are as pretty as they are labor-intensive. These cats require daily grooming, including combing of the entire body and gentle wiping of the eyes. Many of these cats were discarded by previous owners due to the amount of care they need... so please consider carefully whether you will make this daily routine part of your life for the rest of this cat's life.
