Oriental kittens & cats in Des Moines, Iowa

HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted. To schedule a time to meet this cat, please contact Mary at mmccarroll@arl-iowa.org - Stunning Lynx Point Siamese who is tall, slender and oh so handsome- LOVES to be near his humans once he gets to know you - this may take a week or so, so please be patient with him - A serious lap cat once he gets to know you - Loud, unexpected noises (even thunder) are very scary to him, so he is looking for a quieter home - Has historically been stressed around other cats, but may do okay with a VERY calm cat buddy who has already lived with another cat - He is very active and energetic; enjoys playing with toys - LOVES his vertical scratcher and is very good about using it; he will need a tall cat tree with a sisal scratcher - Likes to look out the window from his cat tree - Will be a wonderful friend for a calm, patient person who loves the quiet life just like he does- Was somewhat fearful when he arrived at the shelter, but he has been coming out of his shell and is a total sweetheart with the people he feels comfortable with- Loves to be pet and seek out attention- Wants to be with his humans, once he has settled into his new home- LOVES to wind around and rub against your legs, so he will not be suited well to a home with someone with mobility issues- Is not a good fit for young, busy or active kids, so he is looking for a mature home that is calm and quiet- Looking for a quiet home with one or two adults; change can be stressful for him so a calm, predictable home will be best- Please plan on starting him in one room of your home and giving him quite a bit of time to become comfortable with that area and with you before allowing him access to larger areas of the home; this process will help set him up for success by not overwhelming him- Likes to eat Purina Naturals dry cat food (is not too interested in canned food or cat treats) Primary Color: Seal Point Weight: 8.64 Age: 1yrs 8mths 4wks

Hey there — I'm Jessie, a precious 3-month-old buff point Siamese boy with a heart full of adventure! 🐱 I'm litter box trained and ready to go, and I absolutely love snuggling up for cuddles on your lap while still keeping my independent spirit alive. I'm playful and energetic (fair warning: I can be a little mischievous!), and I get along wonderfully with other cats, making me a perfect fit for multi-cat homes. I'm available for adoption in Texas only, so if you're in the Lone Star State and ready for a friendly, affectionate kitten companion, come meet me! 💕
