Meet Tessie, a delightful one-year-old brown tabby Domestic Shorthair from Garrettsville, OH, with a heart as sweet as her playful spirit! Tessie may start off a bit shy, but she quickly warms up to become the loving companion you’ve been waiting for. Her most charming quirk? A cute little bend at the tip of her tail, likely from an old injury, which only adds to her unique personality.
Tessie is a playful young cat who thrives on attention, especially when she can engage in her favorite activities like pouncing on toys—any toy is fair game, even those that belong to the kids! She’s particularly proud of her "captures" and will meow to show off her latest toy triumph, making her the perfect little huntress at heart. But when she's not busy playing, Tessie loves soaking up all the pets and cuddles she can get!
Currently, Tessie lives in a foster home where she's made friends with a friendly male cat and a gentle senior dachshund, proving that she’s wonderful with cat-friendly dogs and playful felines. She’s even "cordial" with a three-year-old human—she enjoys quiet, gentle petting sessions, though she prefers to retreat to her cozy hiding spots when things get a bit too rambunctious. Tessie has never hissed, swatted, or scratched at anyone, showing just how calm and affectionate she truly is.
While she loves to play and enjoys some feline company, Tessie has a playful kitten energy that may not be suitable for every cat. The senior female cat in her foster home isn’t too fond of her playful antics, so Tessie would do best with other cats who share her love of fun or with male cats who don’t mind a little chase every now and then.
Are you looking for a sweet, playful cat who will brighten up your home with her meows of triumph and snuggles of affection? Tessie is ready to find her new loving home with a family who appreciates her playful energy, quirky charm, and love for attention. Could your home be the one where Tessie finds her next adventure?
