About Chester

Chester arrived at the shelter in February 2026 alongside his brother. He’s still adjusting to new surroundings, spending much of his time tucked away from the spotlight. Chester is a shy cat by nature, but when curiosity wins him over, he’ll step out and approach you for some gentle head pets. One distinctive thing about Chester: he’s polydactyl, so he has a few extra toes. That makes his paws look especially unique if you catch him stretching out. Chester is looking for someone patient who understands he might need time to feel comfortable. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
