When Hattie was found as a stray, she had an injury to her chest and needed surgery. Now, the only evidence that was ever hurt is her shaved patch of fur and her fashionable cone. But this gorgeous kitty hasn’t let her injury hold her back from craving petting and affection! This ten-year-old sweetie loves being petted on her head and will start purring immediately. If you stop petting her, she’ll gently rub a tooth on your hand to let you know that you must have accidentally stopped petting her. Also, her fur is really, really soft, so why would you ever stop?
