My story

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

Taco, an extremely sweet and gentle dude, will absolutely sate your kitty hunger! He was originally abandoned on our porch five years ago along with over twenty other cats, and aside from being stressed upon check in and testing positive for FIV, this long-haired kitty was in pretty good shape (all things considered). He was adopted out within his first year here and has spent these past five years in a home. Sadly, the adopter has faced personal crises and was no longer able to care for Taco, so he has found his way back here again. He is understandably a little sad and very confused, but nevertheless he has been a good trooper through all of this and is very deserving and ready for a new loving home. He is one our FIV+* residents who lives in our Cypress Colony. Taco was born in 2007.

*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.
