In the shelter’s words

Meet Clarissa! Clarissa is a sweet, loving classic tabby, about three years old, with a little triangular nick at the tip of her left ear. Once an outdoor cat, she has been living indoors for the past year since having her kittens. Now she needs a peaceful home where she has room to play, relax, and feel safe. Clarissa likes affection on her own terms. Being picked up and held isn’t her favorite, but settle onto the couch or bed and she’ll happily climb into your lap for some pampering. She loves being petted—just skip the belly rubs! She’ll sleep beside you and isn’t shy about joining whatever you’re doing when she wants a little attention. This playful girl enjoys toys, scratching posts, and watching the world through a window. She has bursts of playful energy in the late evening and sometimes the early morning, and she’ll announce her excitement with happy meows when it’s time to eat. Clarissa is sensitive and can become stressed easily, sometimes retreating under the bed when she needs a quiet moment. After being bullied by another cat, she has needed to stay in a bedroom for her own comfort and safety, leaving her with little space to explore. She can coexist with gentle cats who give her space, but dominant or pushy cats overwhelm her. Clarissa would thrive in a calm home with a patient, loving person who respects her boundaries. With space to stretch her legs and the security of knowing she’s safe, this affectionate girl will have every chance to blossom.
