Jessi is a sweet cat who is very cautious and fearful in the shelter. It can be hard to see her true personality because it is so hard for her to relax. We do know she loves wet food and treats, and when she knows it`s mealtime, she`ll often come out of her cubby to vocalize her excitement. Jessi enjoys playing with string toys and doesn’t mind a gentle back scratcher, although she can be wary of new people and situations. She will need someone who understands that Jessi might like some things but will still need time to warm up to other things. A quiet, patient approach is essential, as Jessi will need an adopter who respects her boundaries and allows her to take things at her own pace. With lots of treats, time, and understanding, Jessi could blossom into a sweet, trusting companion. Her perfect home would be with someone who is extremely patient and willing to let her figure out that humans are friends.
Adoptions are free and include support from our adoption team to ensure a smooth transition from the shelter to your home. Adopted pets are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered before leaving with you. To view our current available animals, please visit: https://indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet.
