My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Estefano is a handsome black-and-white gentleman with a heart as soft as his fur. Described as very laid back and sweet, he’s the kind of cat who takes life at his own relaxed pace and enjoys the simple pleasures—quiet company, gentle pets, and cozy spots to lounge.
Found as a stray, Estefano has clearly decided that the indoor life is the good life, and he’s more than ready to settle into a loving home. He is FIV+, which simply means he’ll do best as an indoor-only cat and can live a long, happy life with routine vet care and lots of love.
FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus) causes a weakened immune system. Estefano is not contagious to humans or other animals! However, he should be the only cat in his new home. Estefano is expected to live a perfectly happy, if slightly shorter life, and has so much love to give!
If you are interested in adopting Estefano, please visit the shelter during our adoption hours.
