Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Watch Jinx' other video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjSCw-cGgFk
Jinx has been at the shelter since he was 4 mos old. He was found outside and was super frightened of people. After 4yrs, he has gotten to trust many of the volunteers who pet him and give him treats. He is a great companion to other cats. He recently had a complete dental checkup and had all his teeth removed. He can eat just fine. Please consider giving him a home larger than the one small room he shares with a dozen or more other cats.
Jinx's best buddy is Jack who is another quiet peaceful cat. Jack is our local heartbreaker. Life was good for Jack until his owner passed away. He then came to the shelter with his 4 brothers and sisters.
Unfortunately, Jack has a minor disability, and we know this will make it harder for him to find a home. While he is perfectly healthy, he does having something of a “twisted neck”. We think this could be the result of neurological trauma at birth, or perhaps a previous condition that was left untreated. Jack is shy, but he is undoubtedly one of our “super-sweets”.
He relaxes right away when getting petting and attention, and gets along very well with other cats (no surprise there!). Little Jack needs love and a happy home once again, and soon.
