My story

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

Vixen Valentine has a small figure but a big heart. At first she appears to be shy but with a little patience she will warm up to you and accept gentle head rubs and chin scratches. Not long after that, she will roll over on her side and embrace your hand like a little hedgehog, nuzzling with her sweet face. Vixen Valentine came to Tree House through our TNR department, and is overwhelmed in this busy environment. She would love a quiet, peaceful home where she can spend mornings cuddled up with you. She was born around 2012-2013 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.
