My story

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

Tangelo arrived to us from a traditional shelter in pretty rough shape and unneutered, with an injury to the arm and FIV to boot. Luckily, Tree House was able to get him the treatments he needed and the TLC he deserved. This goofy guy is extremely charming, and quickly became one of his foster parent’s favorite temporary house guests he’s ever had! The injury to his arm healed very well, and he’s fit right into his current colony room, demonstrating quite pleasant kitty manners. Overall, this slightly dusty looking ginger would be a great addition to any home lucky enough to have him!

*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.
