Penelope is a declawed mellow affectionate girl who adores people. Abandoned with another feline friend in an apartment last October, she’s hoping with all her heart to find her forever home soon. This sweet girl
likes to lean her head against your forehead and ask for kisses. To capture your attention, she’ll reach up your leg and “scratch” (with declawed paws) for you to pick her up. Once up on your shoulder, she wraps her arms around your neck and nuzzles for kisses. Puurring the entire time! Very cute!!

She is incredibly social and once the motor starts going, she’ll flump down on her side for belly rubs. Penelope is a little older and needs to be with someone who can recognize when she needs a little support, so from time to time she may need subcutaneous fluids. We’re hoping to find an experienced compassionate cat lover for Penelope to cover in kisses and hugs! Could you be the one to make her
wishes come true?
