My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Penelope is a sweet, gentle girl with a calm, quiet personality. She’s independent and not a lap cat, but enjoys being nearby and loves cozy, warm spots like heated blankets and heating pads. She would do best in a peaceful home and would likely thrive as the only cat.

She has a beautiful long coat and takes excellent care of her fur, with no history of matting. She does require regular brushing and occasional grooming due to hairballs. She is exceptionally well-behaved during grooming - very patient and gentle, with no hissing, biting, or swatting.

Penelope loves clean litter boxes and has a history of occasional UTIs, so she needs an attentive owner and a consistent routine. She enjoys laser pointer play, eats dry kibble (1/4 cup twice daily), prefers pate wet food mixed with water if offered, and is great about drinking fresh water.

Also, sweet P was a rescue and was unfortunately declawed from a previous owner.
