My story

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

Elf MVP but FIV Positive
Don't leave me sitting on the shelf but bring me home so that I can be your buddy. I'm a savvy cat who knows the score. I'm pretty unflappable, too. I don't mind entertaining myself, but a human companion at the other end of the couch and a nice scratch behind the ears always make my day. If you're looking for a resourceful addition to your team, think about signing this Most Valuable Pussycat. I was however infected with Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) sometime in my life. After the early days of infection, FIV cats may not be sick for months or years but can still infect other cats though. Later in life, a FIV cat's infection may become active again, and I will show signs of sickness. When the virus is active, it can weaken the immune system, leaving me at risk for different infections. The virus can also cause cancers in infected cats. As it can take many years for the virus to become active again, many cats infected with FIV can live long and healthy lives.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Fees vary depending on a number of factors including age, type of animal and spay/neuter status. If an animal is not spayed/neutered prior to leaving the shelter, adopters are required to sign a contract agreeing to have the animal altered within a set time frame. Adoption fees, if any, include a certificate to assist with spay/neuter costs. All animals leaving the facility are microchipped and adopters receive a free vet visit as part of the adoption process. All our cats have tested free of feline disease and all adult spayed/neutered cats can be adopted for no fee.
