Tessa's Story

Tessa is an amazing cat but she’ll need someone patient for her to come around. She was found at a school eating whatever the little kids dropped for lunch. It took her sometime to love her foster but now she’s obsessed. She’s very talkative and will paw you for pets, but you have to pet her a certain way for she gets grossed out ? she adores other cats so she MUST have a kitty in whatever home she goes in. She helps with the foster kittens by grooming and snuggling with them. She will not be overly friendly right away, it will take time but once she trust and loves you she’ll be your bestfriend. If interested please text 8136955473 for an app and to do a home check!
