Tessie was born 8/23/2005 and is a little teaser. She is very friendly but seems to be afraid of dogs and a little intimidated by aggressive cats. Tessie just wants to be a lap cat and have someone play with her. She had been locked in a cage for almost a year but is now running free in a foster home.Although she is getting up in age and is now in the first stages of CKD, she can still be active and loves to play.  However, you do not have to worry about her climbing your curtains or furniture because she is "Mature", and mature cats don't do those things.Tess has been in foster care since she was a baby.  She really needs a lifetime family of her own.If you want more information, please send an email to paws@oplink.net.  Our website is www.pawsrescue.org where each rescued pet has its own webpage.
