PORT WASHINGTON, NY — After what was supposed to be her forever home, Jean Gray is back at the shelter through no fault of her own.
The four-year-old cat was returned to North Shore Animal League America's Port Washington campus just a few days ago after a child in her previous home developed allergies.
Jean may take some time to warm up, but shelter staff say she has a softer side that comes out with patience and gentle attention. Once comfortable, she enjoys getting pets and curling up by her person's feet.
The feline has striking green eyes and a black-and-white coat. She is fearful of dogs, so shelter staff says she would do best in a dog-free home.
She is currently waiting at North Shore Animal League America's Port Washington campus for a new family.
The shelter is located at 25 Davis Ave. in Port Washington, and more information about how to adopt can be found online. Jean Grey's profile has not yet been set up online.
