Do you speak cat? (Yes, it’s a real thing!) Then you may be a good human for LillyMay! This beautiful 6-year-old girl is looking for a home with cat experience who can read her signals when she wants to have “me time” and when she’s ready for lots of affection. With her unique fur coat of gray with apricot flourishes, LillyMay is so pretty that you’ll just want to run and scoop her up—but she’s not that kind of kitty. Let her come to you, and she’ll be ready for chin scratchies galore, and in her past home, she even loved lap time! She’d be good with kids 12 and up, and dogs who are friendly with cats. She’d prefer to be your only feline, though. LillyMay is located at the Connecticut Humane Society’s Westport location. Check out her profile at CThumane.org and see the other critters who are looking for homes as well!
