Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Exeter, Rhode Island

Jeter has one of the shiniest, most sleek black coats. His striking green eyes are the cherry on top. He is a beautiful boy! He is extremely curious and playful. He’s often batting around his toys, rolling around his kennel, or sitting right at the front with a paw sticking out so he can keep an eye on what’s going on.

Jeter has some of the biggest paws we’ve ever seen! He is polydactyl, meaning he has extra toes on his front paws. His front paws look like little lobster claws!

Jeter seems to really like other cats and even cat-savvy dogs. We think his ideal home would have another friendly, confident animal for him to bond with and learn from.

He is still learning to trust humans, but he is making progress everyday and we can tell he is very interested, he’s just afraid. He will need a patient, gentle adopter who is willing to slowly acclimate him to the home and continue working with him to earn his trust.

Jeter is estimated to be around 2 years old. He is neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

Please DO NOT apply through Petfinder.
