In the shelter’s words

Introducing 3-year-old Purrl! (Please carefully read her full description before applying... Purrl is looking for a very specific human family.) Purrl is a Highlander/American Curl mix with a whole lot of personality packed into one beautiful, distinctive package. With her signature curled ears, athletic build, and exotic appearance, Purrl definitely stands out from the crowd. And so does her attitude... Purrl is an independent girl who knows what she likes — and what she absolutely does not like. She is not a cuddly cat and prefers affection on her own terms. She needs an adopter who understands feline body language, respects boundaries, and appreciates a cat with a strong personality. Because of her unique needs, Purrl requires an adopter with experience with Highlander cats or similar breeds. She also requires a specialized diet and someone who is prepared to continue meeting her specific care needs. Purrl must be the only cat in the home. She isn't looking for feline roommates — she wants to be the queen of her castle. She isn't the right cat for everyone, and that's okay. Purrl is looking for someone who understands that the best relationships aren't always about having a lap cat. Sometimes they're about earning trust, respecting boundaries, and loving a cat exactly as she is. This cat has been combo-tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV, received all age-appropriate vaccinations and is altered.
