Jesse
Albany, New York
Jesse was part of a massive
rescue attempt by the Save-a-Pet program run by Shaker Veterinary Hospital of
Albany, New York. A nice old lady had 110 cats, but wasn't able to take care
of them very well. She was even forgoing supplies for herself to feed the cats.
Fortunately, all the cats were rescued from the home and almost all of them
were placed in loving homes. Jesse was a bit too feral to be placed and, after
three years at the clinic, is just starting to let himself be petted. He jumps
on the manager's lap and nudges her hand when he's ready to be petted. He'll
stay 5 or 10 minutes, then he's done. He likes to sleep in the pile of cats
and dogs on the couch, or in his hidey-hole on the scratching post. He works
with his buddies Stanley and
CD.
( Note: Jesse was rescued as a kitten in 1996.)
