My story

Hi my name is Tessa.  ! was born on the property of an oil company and lived in the pallets on the property with my foster brothers.  We were all part of a feral cat colony.  These nice ladies learned about our situation and decided they had to help us.  They started feeding us and then put these long narrow cages out with the most yummy food inside.  I could not resist and in I went.  Well guess what???  I could not get out.  That was very scary.  Then they took me to this building and left me.  That was the vet.  They were actually taking care of me!  That was first for sure.  Miss Becca stepped up to foster me and is helping me to adjust to INSIDE life as a pet.  I was the last one to come to my foster home.  I am younger than the boys and am behind them in my social skills.  I watch the people from afar.  I want to be petted and loved on but am still a bit afraid.  I just need a nice loving home where people will give me a chance to adjust and settle in.  I know that I can do it and become a very loving kitty.   I just need a little time.  I get along great with the other 5 cats here.  So may be if I had a feline friend in my forever home that would help.  I a spayed, current on all my shots, FIV negative and microchipped.  To be considered for my forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcast.net.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (I am currently in Tennessee but can be transported north upon adoption.)December 23, 2024, 12:05 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt KITTY TESSA, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
