Jabari is a gorgeous, affectionate cat who loves exploring and playing (and letting you know when his dinner’s late!). Got a cat tower? I will sprint up it. Something else I can climb? Lemme at it.
He loves seeing how far he can walk around the house without going down to ground level: ‘Let me see. If I step from the elevated hall, down onto the Coonara, then walk along the back of the sofa, I can reach the middle platform of the cat tower, where I’m just the right height for you to give me a cuddle, while I arch my back with pride. Yes, I think that will work!’
If you’re walking past him, he will sometimes reach out with his paw to touch you (and snag your clothing with a claw so you can’t just walk away without talking to him!).
When he’s particularly happy (something new for me to explore?!), he will fill the air with little trills of delight.
Jabari loves being up high and has amazing climbing prowess. If you have a super tall cat tower, he will love you forever. His favourite sleeping place is about two feet from the ceiling.
Although he is confident once settled, he will hide when strangers - including you! - come to visit and will take longer than other cats to settle in to his new life with you.
He will need a comfortable ‘sanctuary room’ to begin with and your patience in helping him feel safe. He won’t be an ‘instant cat’ in his new home and will need gentle patience before he shares his true personality with you. Good things come to those who wait!
Jabari will be happiest in a home either with other cat-friendly cats, or with someone who is home a lot.
If you don’t yet have another cat and would like to adopt two, he is friends with Tennyson and Tai.
We haven't tested him with dogs, but don't anticipate he'd have a problem.
Medical notes
Jabari is a healthy, happy cat. He comes desexed, vaccinated, mirochipped, flea-treated and wormed.
