Orange cat lovers -- Jaxon is looking for his forever home!

If you love orange cats, man, Jaxon could be the one for you! Jaxon has captured our hearts with his quirky, very ORANGE CAT personality. Favorite pastimes include long conversations with you, wrastlin' his toys and imbibing in as many treats as possible. His quirks? Well, Jaxon hates....HIS TAIL. It is possibly kennel stress or an old injury, but Jaxon has it out for his! Thankfully, he is redirected easily since he is so treat motivated and orange-cat-y, but it should be noted that potential adopters be sensitive to this -- respectful kids and calm dogs are a MUST. No tail pulling tolerated! We think he could get along with other kitties with very slow intros, but also would be happy as an only cat. He likes lots of stimulus, so an active home is actually ideal! Come check out Jaxon at the shelter -- you won't be disappointed!
