SPECIFICS
Purebred Persian: Cream coat, copper eyes, spayed female, 6 years, 6.5 lbs, has claws.

Special needs: None.
GETTING TO KNOW ME
IDEAL HOME Hazel would thrive with an attentive family who’s home regularly. She’d enjoy a feline friend but is equally content as your one and only. Cat-savvy kids 6+ are welcome, and a respectful dog could work with proper introductions. Her wishlist includes cat trees near windows for bird-watching and cozy spots to lounge with her favorite humans.
PERSONALITY & HABITS Easy-going and affectionate without being overly demanding, Hazel just wants your love and attention. She’s excellent with scratching posts (both vertical and horizontal) and perfect with her litter box. She has Persian roommates available if you’re interested in adopting a pair!
CARE REQUIREMENTS
- Feeding: Canned pâté twice daily (she’s thriving on this diet!)
- Litter: Large, open-style box with unscented clumping litter (one box per cat, plus one extra)
- Grooming: Currently growing out from a lion cut, so grooming is easy now. Will need combing 2-3 times weekly (just 5-10 minutes) to prevent mats and hairballs. Monthly nail trims are a breeze. Daily eye wipes with Eye Envy keep her face clean and healthy.
- No declawing ever
TRANSITION TIPS Hazel needs a patient family who understands that settling in takes time—often up to THREE MONTHS. Start her in a basecamp room and introduce her to the home gradually. Research proper cat introductions, especially if you have other pets.
Hazel is ready to be your devoted companion. Could she be your perfect match?
