Meet Checkers
Checkers is an 8-month-old tabby with bunny-soft fur and a gentle, introverted nature. He may be shy at first, but once he trusts you, becomes the quiet, steady companion you didn’t know you needed. He very much relies on Jam as his emotional support kitty. He finds comfort in his best friend Jam, an outgoing and social little cat who’s sure to win you over instantly with his confident charm. Together, they balance each other perfectly—Checkers with his calm, soothing presence and Jam with his bright, bubbly energy.These two are a pair, looking for a home where they can continue their special friendship. If you’re ready for a mix of playful affection and serene companionship, Checkers and Jam would love to meet you!All of our cats come spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with their initial age-appropriate vaccinations. Young cats have an adoption fee of $175. If you would like to apply to be a forever home for this cat, please fill out a statement of interest at www.alternativehumanesociety.com. Unless otherwise indicated, all our cats and kittens are best suited for indoor-only life.
