Connie. Birthdate: August 1, 2012 Connie was living on the street and very hungry when we found her. She is very sweet and affectionate--the ultimate lap cat. Connie likes to be petted, but even more, she likes to just sit in your lap or on your chest. If you even start to sit or crouch, Connie is in your lap. She might do okay around other cats, but I think she would prefer a home where she can get all the attention. She seems afraid of dogs, and I do not think she would do well with young children. She will play if you engage her, but mostly, she wants to sit in your lap. (Are you sensing a theme yet?)
