About Jepson

Meet Jepson, a dapper tabby with striking brown and black stripes. He also has pretty white accents on his face, chin, chest, and paws, along with mesmerizing green eyes and a bubblegum pink nose. Estimated to be around five years old, Jepson was living on the streets before a kindhearted resident stepped in to help him. After arriving at our center, he had some minor injuries, but with care and time, he has fully healed and is now ready for a new home. Initially shy, Jepson has opened up thanks to the consistent work of our dedicated volunteers. He’s becoming quite affectionate and enjoys gentle pets, especially around his head and behind his ears. Jepson has also recently taken an interest in playing with toys. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and has a microchip. Now, this big softie is looking forward to leaving his past behind to find a forever home full of love and attention. If you think Jepson could be the purr-fect addition to your family, let’s get the adoption process started!
