Lilly of the Valley's story highlights the many reasons why cats should stay indoors.
Lilly's rescuer trapped her on a Bronx street where his mother-in-law lives in April 2024. They had her spayed and vetted and she SNAP tested negative with the help of Osi Kaminer, Bronx Community Cats and the ASPCA.
Turned out the neighbor said the cat was hers and wanted her back. Trying to keep the peace on this block we gave here back reluctantly with instructions to please not let the cat outside.
Fast forward 6 months later, her rescuer was sitting on the porch and there is a cat who looks just like Lilly. She seems to know the rescuer and climbs into a cat carrier. The chip scan confirms it and now she is FeLV+. She is a beautiful warm cat who is now about 2 1/2 years old with many years of love to give. She deserves a home and not a holding cage.
Lilly of the Valley is FeLV+ and needs to be adopted as a single cat or with another feline leukemia positive companion. Cats that are FeLV+ can live normal and healthy lives when provided with quality care such as a balanced diet and yearly wellness exam, however most likely their lifespans will be much shorter than other cats. We’d be happy to talk more about this!
This is a courtesy listing, meaning the cat(s) are being offered for adoption by a rescuer, rescue group, or individual unaffiliated with the Brooklyn Cat Cafe or Brooklyn Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition. As BBAWC has not evaluated the animal(s) we therefore cannot provide information on health or temperament. After we receive an application, we will connect you with the current caretaker of this cat.
