Petal
At only 1 year old, talkative Petal is a sweet and youthful cat who is fully litter trained and doesn’t require the time and socialization that a kitten would. Believe it or not, there are a lot of benefits to adopting a cat (rather than a kitten) that you wouldn’t want to miss out on. Grown cats are “Insta-Pets.” They’re litter-trained, their personalities are established, and there are few behavioral surprises. Good with children and other cats, Petal was brought to DCSPCA as a stray and is hoping for a furever home where she can snuggle up and settle down. Apply to adopt PETAL: bit.ly/DCSPCAPetal
