Jefferson's Story

Meet Jefferson: Shy, Sweet, and Surviving!<br/><br/>Jefferson is a truly resilient and sweet soul who has already overcome a lot in his young life. After a difficult start-he was found abandoned in a school garbage can-this handsome boy quickly learned that humans can be tolerable, and even quite kind!<br/><br/>Jefferson is a shy guy, but beneath that initial reserve is a loving heart that is trying its best every day. He will happily accept gentle pets and affection on his own terms, but he is not a fan of being picked up.<br/><br/>He's a sneaky socialite! While he might try to hide it, Jefferson absolutely loves to play with other cats and has made some very good friends in his foster home. You can often catch him joining in on the fun when he thinks you aren't looking! He also has a healthy appetite and goes crazy for wet food.<br/><br/>Jefferson is looking for a calm and patient home that understands he might need a little time and space to truly blossom. Given his history, he will thrive with an owner who can offer consistent love and a peaceful environment.<br/>Could you be the patient and loving family Jefferson deserves?
