My story

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

Herman was admitted to Tree House Humane Society in November of 2012. After being adopted in February of 2013, Herman was faultlessly returned to Tree House in late September of 2015. Herman is a gentle, docile giant who wants as much love from humans as he can get. Since he does crave attention from humans he can get over stimulated around other cats who also crave attention. A great companion for Herman would be another calm tempered cat in the home or a low prey driven dog. Herman would be great with a family of any kind since he loves human attention! Herman was born in 2009 and has tested 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.
