Juniper

Tessa is a cautious young lady with a gentle soul who's had a difficult start to life. The busy shelter environment can feel a little overwhelming for her, so she's looking for a patient and understanding home that will give her the time she needs to feel safe.

At first, Tessa can be shy and unsure around new people. She needs a slow, calm approach to help her realise that the world isn't as scary as it seems. But once she starts to trust you, her true personality blossoms beautifully.

Behind those cautious eyes is an incredibly affectionate little cat who absolutely loves attention. When Tessa comes out of her shell, she transforms into the sweetest smooch imaginable. She'll happily head butt you for pats and soaking up all the love she can get. She's the kind of cat who forms a deep bond with her people, and watching her confidence grow is incredibly rewarding.

Tessa is searching for a quiet, loving home where she can settle in at her own pace and finally enjoy the safe, happy life she deserves. In return, she'll reward your patience with endless affection and plenty of loving head boops.

Tessa is part of our Rescue or Rehome program, where we are committed to finding homes for cats and kittens who simply cannot cope in the shelter environment. If you can open your heart and home to Tessa - or if you're a rescue group able to help - please reach out to us at adoptions@dogshome.com
