My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

It is not uncommon for Prescott to greet you on his back, where he lounges waiting for visitors. He’ll reach out one magnificent lion leg and draw your hand towards you with his calloused paw, encouraging you to pet his tummy. This solid cat with tender green eyes was admitted through our Community Cats department. Prescott has clearly lived as an outdoor cat, as attested by his strong, big body. Prescott is a delightful, mellow cat. He was born around 2012 and tests positive for FIV*.

*Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) causes a weakening of the immune system in cats. It's often compared to human HIV, but FIV is not transferable to humans or other species. It is also difficult to transfer to other sterilized cats, and we believe that mixed FIV and non-FIV households can work if managed properly. If kept indoors in a stress-free environment, with regular medical care and high-quality nutrition, most FIV+ cats live long and healthy lives. Tree House staff can help answer your questions to see if an FIV+ cat is the right choice for you. FIV+ cats adopted from Tree House are eligible for a lifetime veterinary-care plan that includes a free annual exam and discounted treatments.
