JAMAICA

Jamaica was found freezing to death and at some point in her past, someone had cut off her ear. She has the most beautiful and luxurious coat and is a truly beautiful girl.

When Jamaica arrived at LCCR she was desperate for love and affection. If you let her get near you she would climb up to your shoulder, put one paw on each side of your neck, and snuggle in for a hug! Responding to the patience and love of the volunteers, she still loves attention, but is more selective these days. She now asks to come up for pets and will still give you a big hug when you invite her in. An amazing step forward - she has also found her voice - if you are one of her chosen humans she will chirp at you when she wants attention and wants hugs.

Jamaica is an independent cat who doesn't interact much with the other cats, unless she's telling them to give her some space. She seeks solitude when she can get it but in a place as big as the Cat Ranch that's a tough thing to find. She has found little cat beds and cat pods so she can have her own space.

Jamaica loves to be brushed and will put her butt right up in the air. She loves to chase string toys. Jamaica is a kitty whose inner hunter will come to life if you touch her belly - who can blame her after what she has been through! She follows up every play session with a good nap in a cushy cat bed or on a pillow.

Jamaica would do best in a home as the only pet. She may also get along well with older children who know how to play with her appropriately.
