About Jake

Jake is a lively, curious brown tabby who finds joy in just about anything that moves—a feather toy, a game with his siblings, or a race down the hallway. Whether he's showing off his playful leaps or quietly cozying up nearby, Jake blends bursts of fun with laid-back moments. After some good playtime, he loves to sprawl out and soak in the calm. This short-haired Domestic Shorthair is a keen little observer, happiest when he can tag along with his people and watch the world at his own pace. He's gentle but a bit shy at first, so he'll need a patient adopter ready to let him settle in. Jake’s perfect match is a home with an active, playful cat (or you can bring home his sister Rosy for a half-price fee), a quiet indoor setting, cat trees, and plenty of toys. He’s not into being picked up, but he’ll gladly curl up in your lap for head scratches and purrs. Jake gets along great with other cats and cat-friendly dogs after a proper introduction. He enjoys gentle children as long as they respect his boundaries about picking up. He's litter box trained and already neutered and microchipped. Born on April 3, Jake is an Aries—energetic, loyal, and confident. He’s ready to find his patient, loving forever family. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
