10 Picture Perfect Years at UGA’s Veterinary Teaching Hospital

Meet Jelly

photo of Jelly the cat

Age: 13 years old

Nicknames: Jelly Roll, JJ, Rolls, J, Jelly Belly 

Jelly’s Favorite Activities: Jelly loved sunbathing on the deck while she watched birds and squirrels. She had a bell to ring on the back door to let her butler (me) know she was ready to go. The deck is on the second floor, so she enjoyed walks on the leash. She loved them so much that her spicy attitude would come out when it was time to go inside! She also loved looking out the window like a dog on her car rides to and from UGA. 

Jelly’s Favorite Treats: She loved EVERY treat:  Churus were her favorite cat treat, and rotisserie chicken and cheese danish were her favorite special occasional treats.
