Domestic Short Hair and Extra Toes Cat Hemingway Polydactyl Cats Available for Adoption

Jerri is a truly special girl with a story of resilience, strength, and a whole lot of hidden sweetness. Originally slated for TNR, her path changed when a clinic noticed an old fracture in her right hind leg. Once in rescue, it quickly became clear that not only was the injury severe and painful, but Jerri herself was far too sweet to be sent back outside. After getting the care she needed, she's now a proud member of the tripod club—and thriving.

Don't let her signature “resting grump face” fool you—behind that serious expression is a soft, affectionate cat who absolutely loves attention. Jerri enjoys being petted and will happily settle into a cozy spot, especially if there's a soft blanket involved. That's when her biscuit-making skills really shine—she kneads away in pure contentment.

As if she wasn't unique enough already, Jerri also has extra toes on her front paws, giving her an adorable polydactyl twist that makes her even more one of a kind.

Jerri is ready to leave her past behind and enjoy the comfort of a safe, loving home. She may look a little tough on the outside, but she's all heart—and she's ready to share it with someone special.
