She was brought to us as a stray, so she appreciates the comforts of a quiet home without all the unpredictability she left behind while living on the streets. Noelle is a free spirit with an independent streak that complements her statuesque beauty. She seems unconcerned about living with other cats, though her best pal, Nalani, would make a great companion for her. She might be okay living with a mellow dog, so whatever your situation is, let’s talk! Noelle is spayed, negative for FeLV-FIV, and up-to-date on vaccines, Please contact Paws of Hope at [email protected] to learn more about our beautiful Noelle.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
