Mermaid

You can tell by Mermaid's clipped ear and feisty spirit that she's a scrappy girl, who had some hard years. You can also tell by her rounded belly and penchant for head-rubs that she's also had some soft years, too. Since being in the care of Paws and Claws, Mermaid has learned about the luxuries of a plush cat bed, a bowl full of dry food (her favorite!), and napping in a human's lap. She's realized that she loves cosleeping with people, where you can both protect one another. Mermaid has found new favorite toys: lumps under the rug, carpet ghosts, and heavy rubber bands. She's become a lapcat, according to her foster, and loves sunbathing, window snoozing, and begging for extra meals. Mermaid won't be everyone's perfect cat -- but she doesn't have to be. She just needs one person who can love her for who she is, and see that she is a perfect side-kick (and maybe even best friend).
