Hello, I'm Jericho. I'm a pretty cool cat, if I do say so myself. I've got a heart as big as a lion's and a purr as soft as a kitten's. I'm a sociable fella, always up for a friendly chat or a gentle pat. I'm not too fussed about the small stuff. A comfy spot to nap, a tasty meal, and a bit of love are all I really need. I'm the sort of cat who will make your house feel like a home. If you're looking for a loyal companion, I'm your guy. I promise to bring joy and warmth to your life. I do have a medical condition which I need to tell you about. I'm FeLV+ which is an immune compromising virus. Regular vet care is essential for me. I can't live with other cats unless other cats in household are also FeLV+. I can still live a normal life, but there is potential for shortened life expectancy.
