My story

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

We've got some sad news but are still hoping for a happy ending! Keiko, a pretty stray boy who has been in our care since Oct 2023 has been diagnosed with Feline Leukemia. He is not showing any symptoms of the illness (other than a runny eye that we've tried numerous different drops on to try and sort out with no luck).
There is so little known about Feline Leukemia! Some cats are exposed to it and never get the illness, others, it shows up in their systems,they never get sick (and have then been known to clear it on their own). Yet many will eventually become ill and there is no coming back once they are showing signs of not feeling well. We have no idea of knowing which it will be for sweet Keiko.
We are therefore looking for a home for him with another FeLeuk positive kitty (ideally), as he loves other cats OR a home with no other cats.
Keiko's eye looks worse some days than others. He is actually getting better at cleaning it himself. We found that by continually wiping it, it was making his skin sore but an occasional warm compress would probably be nice once he is familiar with you. He is such a pretty boy and is very cuddly too once he is comfortable with you - we have a few nice videos as proof, but have not been able to figure out how to share them yet! He will take some time to warm up to new people but with some time and patience will become a great companion. If you think you could give this boy a home or know of someone who can, please share our post. Video available on our FB page - https://www.facebook.com/felinefriendsnetwork2006

Additional adoption info

The adoption fee is $150.00 per cat an d $175.00 per kitten Please note that vet care is not free for us and this does not cover our costs so any additional donation is appreciated.
We have an adoption contract and do follow up calls after the cat or kitten is adopted. We want to make sure it is working out for both the adopted animal and its caregivers. We offer support and will take an animal back into our care if it is not working out after proper introductions are done within a certain time period. We provide information sheets and will discuss how to best introduce your new pet to your home, family and other pets.
We do not allow declawing.
All cats/kittens are neutered/spayed, vaccinated with age-appropriate vaccines and receive a preventative flea and worm treatment.
