About Jimmy

Click apply to start the adoption process. Meet Jimmy, a small, adorable white and gray boy with a gentle yet shy personality. While he loves lounging and playing with his foster mates, Jimmy prefers to keep a safe distance from humans, only allowing pets when he's settled securely on his kitty condo. He's happiest in a calm environment where the humans are understanding and respect his need for space, making him an ideal candidate for a patient adult home where his independence is celebrated. Previously living outdoors with a group of other cats, Jimmy was initially part of a trap-neuter-return effort. However, he and his feline friends showed such promise indoors that his rescuer decided they deserved comfy homes instead. Jimmy would especially thrive if adopted with his sister Gemma, but he can find his place solo too if his adopters are understanding. He is also eligible for the foster-to-adopt program—a wonderful way to let him settle in at his own pace. By the way, since Jimmy’s birthday is May 22, he falls under the sign of Gemini, which means he might have a playful, curious side waiting to shine through! They are waiting with paws crossed!
