Medical and care notes**:
Declawed status: 4-paw declawed. She came to us declawed sadly. She has does tender paws.

Coat care: A high-maintenance, luxurious coat that loves to be brushed. Regular grooming will help keep her floof pristine and reduce shedding around the home.

Social needs**:
With children: She does well with older children who can respect her space and boundaries. She has not been around toddlers or babies

With other pets: Better suited to a home without other cats or dogs, as she can become stressed in multi-pet environments. Her foster has several cats, and they suggest that another kitty who will give her spacey or a very cat-tolerant dog could work, but any potential new companion should be introduced slowly and with care.

Ideal home environment**:
A single person, couple, or family that can provide calm, predictable routines and a lot of gentle, patient interaction.
A pet-free or cat-friendly-dog household would be best if adopting with another animal; if no other animals are present, Pru will thrive with ample one-on-one attention and a quiet, enriching space.

A trusting companion who will reward patience with quiet, loving companionship and shared moments of beauty and grace.
