Meet Chirp!Female • Spayed • 2 Years Old Adoption Fee: $145Chirp is a gentle, affectionate girl who came to WARL after her family learned a neighbor planned to throw her out. Despite that rough start, she has remained incredibly loving. Her good Samaritan that kept her for 3 months describes her as the perfect lap cat, the kind who melts into your arms, soaks up full-body pets, and even enjoys those rare tummy rubs most cat`s refuse.Chirp thrives in a calm, predictable environment. Quick movements can make her nervous, and she may swipe if someone approaches too fast or gets too close to her face. So she’s looking for a slow, quiet home with adults only and no other pets. Once she feels safe, she blossoms into a devoted companion who wants nothing more than to be held, cuddled, and welcomed into your bed at night.If you’re ready to give a sweet, sensitive cat a peaceful place to land, Chirp may be your perfect match.Interested in meeting her? Visit the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays between 12–4pm. If those times don’t work, email cats@worcesterarl.org to explore other options.
