My story

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

Hello? Hello? I'm over here, right here...okay now I'm in front of your face. Now, I'm hugging you. Can you see me yet? I'm SO glad you're here!!

How terrific it is to discover the indoors and the wonderful humans who shower me with love. I'm desperately trying to shower them back and spend every waking moment coming up with ways to get them to pet me and love me. The "Don't ever leave me" stare seems to be highly effective and they're quite smitten when I stand on my legs to get closer to their BEAUTIFUL faces and I find I get more hugs if I give them hugs first. I LOVE people...dogs not so much. They're very big and they don't get the hugging concept and they have yet to bring me a bowl of food so if I could live without dogs I'd be very happy.

I'm okay with cats but mostly ignore them since I'm really just trying to get to the humans...but who knows there might be a best cat buddy in my future.

Okay, now here's the bad part...the part seriously threatening my ability to show unlimited affection to humans. I have FIV. There...I said it. I don't FEEL like I have FIV but apparently I do and there's almost no chance another cat will get it from me and I may not ever get sick from it but I have been exposed to the virus. If you have another laidback cat who won't try to bite me, there should be NO problem but if you have no cats at all, that may be even better. So, c'mon...who's ready for LOOOOVE???

*Because Jumbo is FIV positive, he may be at PAWS for some time. If you would like to sponsor him and contribute to his care, please contact us.*
