calathea

Sweet Calathea is a lot like the striped houseplant that lent her their name - a little tender to start, but given the right conditions and a little love, she is sure to thrive! Calathea is very gentle and has been a touch on the worried side in the shelter, but she loves people and once she trusts you she wants nothing more than to curl up in your lap. Calathea is rated for kids 10+ or very savvy, gentle youngsters, and may be a good second dog in a home. Calathea, A594595.
