This is Jewel our 3 year old domestic shorthair, and shelter life is hard for her. She was left in the back parking lot with a collar on and we believe she was most likely someone’s cat at one point. The first day she was here she was very easy to handle, but shortly after would sit in her bed, hissing at whoever came close. We’re not sure what Jewel went through before she got here, but what we do know is that she’s terrified. Her life has been turned upside down and she really needs a friend. We have since moved Jewel into her own suite where she is free roaming, with no other cats, and OH MY, has she turned over a new leaf! She is now allowing her human friends here at the shelter, to pet her and she is starting to enjoy her toys! Jewel needs someone who understands that she still needs some time to warm up and can get overstimulated. Jewel would do best in a quiet household with no other cats, and someone who is willing to go slow with her and move at her pace. Jewel has been through a lot these last few months, she needs a hero who will show her a new amazing life! Could you be her hero?If you want to find out more, contact our placement team at The Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter:E: Adoption@hempsteadny.govE: Rescue@hempsteadny.govE: Foster@hempsteadny.govT: 516.785.5220 #cats #catsofinstagram #cat #catstagram #instagram #catlover #catlife #catlovers #instacat #kitten #pets #meow #kittens #catoftheday #kitty #love #cute #pet #petsofinstagram #kittensofinstagram #cutecats #catlove #adoptdontshop #catsagram #cutecat #lovecats #catloversclub #catsofig #kittycat #petstagram #instacats #catphoto #catsofinsta #ilovemycat #catslover #catscatscats #blackcat #catsofworld #catsoftheworld
