About Gemma

Meet Gemma! She is a loving and affectionate girl who truly adores her people. Originally a stray from Puerto Rico, Gemma found herself in a home but soon realized she prefers to be the sole pet in her space. She exhibits territorial behavior toward both cats and dogs, so she thrives in a home without other animals. Although not overly fond of sharing her space, Gemma seeks attention and affection from her humans. Her charming head-butts are her way of showing love, and while she might not curl up in your lap, she enjoys sleeping close to you in bed. Gemma is perfect for someone who appreciates a confident cat and can provide a peaceful, pet-free environment. She’s ready to form a devoted bond with her one-and-only human. Stop by the adoption center during open hours to meet her!
