My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Jinx 🖤

Jinx is a handsome black cat with a gentle spirit, a soft purr, and a story that proves how resilient — and loving — animals can be. When he arrived in our care, he had a serious wound around his neck, likely the result of surviving outdoors without protection. With time, medical care, and kindness, Jinx has healed beautifully — and now he’s ready to leave the past behind and finally live the life he deserves.

Despite everything he’s been through, Jinx is incredibly affectionate. He loves attention, leans into pets, and has a way of making you feel chosen the moment he settles beside you. He isn’t demanding — he’s grateful. A warm bed, soft hands, and a safe home are all he’s ever wanted.

Jinx is FIV-positive, which may sound daunting — but it’s truly not. FIV isn’t a disease that affects daily life the way people often assume. Many FIV-positive cats live long, normal, healthy lives with no special treatment required. It’s not transmitted through sharing food bowls, using the same litter box, mutual grooming, or simple play — only through bite wounds, something neutered, well-socialized cats like Jinx are not inclined to do.

What makes Jinx special isn’t a medical status — it’s his heart.

He’s survived difficulty with grace, he trusts despite everything, and he’s ready to bond deeply with someone who will love him back. Jinx isn’t just looking for a home — he’s looking for his person.

If you’re searching for a companion who will give love freely, appreciate every moment of comfort, and fill your home with warmth and quiet joy, Jinx may be the perfect match.

Come meet this incredible boy and let him charm his way into your life. 🖤✨

Apply online or stop by the Humane Society Tuesday–Saturday, 10 AM–5 PM to meet him.

We do not receive public or government funding, and no monies from national humane organizations or county, state or federal government funds. Our work depends solely on grants, fundraisers, adoptions, private funding, memberships and donations. The fees collected from the adoption of each animal help to offset some of the costs involved in providing care for the animals and preparing an animal for placement into a new home. We value every animal equally and consider all to be priceless
