| Give Harlequin a good home
|
Harlequin
HARLEQUIN is a neutered male, 5 year old, domestic short-haired cat that is black with white on his chest. He has been at the Green County Humane Society since August, 2008.
He is really hoping for a Christmas miracle where someone opens up their heart and adopts him into a loving home. He loves to snuggle and be petted on your lap. He also likes to nap on a comfy couch or sit in a window and watch outside activity. He will tolerate other calm cats but does not like dogs. He can get a little testy with young children so we recommend children at least 10 years old.
He would really love a nice quiet retirement home to live in. Christmas is a time for giving so we are hoping someone will give this good boy a home.
Please stop in to meet Harlequin or call the Green County Humane Society at 608-325-9600.
