My story

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

Age/DOB: 7-23-2020



Hi, I’m Tracy! I’m a sweet girl who loves to lounge around with my peeps! I particularly seem to like the men in the house! I was originally a P&W kitty who was adopted out. Apparently they weren’t the best of parents and frequently let me outside. Unfortunately, since they let me outside I am now FIV positive. Don't worry, most cats with FIV lead normal, healthy lives and show no symptoms for many years (if ever at all). I am healthy & you just need to be aware that if I were to ever become ill someday, your vet will need to know to help me stay healthy. 



Anyway, one day in November 2023 I decided to run away and apparently they never even looked for me. I ended up in a cat colony nearby where I could at least find food. I was out all winter and it was cold. Finally a lady that cares for & feeds a group of community cats at a shopping center trapped me in one of her traps because she saw I didn’t have the traditional ear tip that feral kitties get when they are spayed/neutered. She quickly realized not only was I friendly, I was spayed AND microchipped! THANK YOU P&W for microchipping me! My previous parents hadn’t even registered me under their name. So, P&W was called to let them know I was found! They checked me over and took me to the vet: while my 3rd/inner eyelids are raised & I sometimes get clear eye discharge, the vet said that daily Lysine supplement is good for me, that I am healthy, and now I’m ready for my new, loving, responsible family!



I am a little bit on the shy side, so I would prefer a calm, quiet home where I will know that I am safe and can sleep on your bed snuggled against you or between your legs.

I am spayed, tested negative for FeLV & positive for FIV, microchipped, dewormed, treated with Revolution, and am up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines.

More about this rescue

Purrs & Whiskers, Inc. is a non-profit organization serving Stafford, Virginia and its surrounding areas whose mission is to employ the best practices of the TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return) philosophy and for those deemed adoptable, we provide temporary foster care while actively seeking a loving permanent living situation. This is accomplished by providing compassion, daily nourishment, and basic wellness care for both individual cats, as well as colonies of free-roaming, homeless cats living outdoors. When feasible, we will collaborate with local shelters in an effort to relieve over-crowding by identifying and adopting out shelter cats into appropriate, permanent living situations.
