Harriet's Story

Meet Harriet - Your Quiet Roommate <br/><br/>Harriet is a 13-year-old beauty who spent most of her life outdoors before coming to the shelter, and is now enjoying the safety and comfort of a foster home. She's completely deaf and in the early stages of kidney disease, but that doesn't stop her from living life exactly as she pleases.<br/><br/>Harriet has no interest in sharing her space with other animals. She'll graciously tolerate humans - mostly because they make excellent food servants and providers of a comfy bed. She's not aggressive, and she's easy to care for when needed, but she prefers relationships to unfold slowly. Yet with patience and a gentle approach, she may surprise you with small steps forward.<br/><br/>Her favorite time is nighttime, when the house is quiet and hers alone. That's when she'll explore, patrol from a window perch, and enjoy a spirited game with a catnip toy. Daytime is for luxurious naps in sunny, low-traffic spots.<br/><br/>Harriet is looking for a calm, patient, cat-savvy home that will respect her boundaries while still giving her the chance to build confidence and enjoy the quiet companionship of "her" human. She may never be a lap cat, but she's the kind of roommate who knows what she likes - and when she's content, her slow blinks are her way of saying thanks.<br/><br/>As we are closed to the public, adoptions are by appointment only. If you have an interest in meeting Harriet, please fill out our online adoption application (https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/MWHS/Cat). We will review all applications and make appointments for those applicants we feel would provide a good and loving home for Harriet.
