About Jefferson

Jefferson is a delightful 2-year-old male domestic short hair, sporting a stunning orange/red tabby coat. This large, handsome boy thrives on human connection and is always eager for a cuddle. After being left behind when his owner went to the hospital, he spent some time in foster care where he showed his affectionate nature and got along beautifully with other cats and cat-friendly dogs. Currently, Jefferson is feeling great after recovering from a painful fractured canine tooth, which has since been removed. He has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, viral tested, and microchipped, making him ready for his forever home. Jefferson would make a wonderful companion to snuggle with this fall, bringing warmth and love into any household. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
