My story

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

Wilson is a handsome orange short-haired gentleman who’s learning just how wonderful indoor life can be. An adult male, Wilson is sweet, playful, and calm, with a shy side that shows up when he first meets new people. Give him a little time (and maybe a nap!), and he quickly warms up into a very affectionate boy who loves attention, petting, and being brushed.

Once comfortable, Wilson enjoys being picked up and held, soaking in all the love he missed while living outdoors. He’s a nice balance of active and chill—happy to bat around wand toys or chase balls in track toys, then settle down for cuddles. He does great with other cats and would love a feline companion; he’s especially hoping to be adopted with his brother, Wayne, whom he’s very bonded with.

Wilson is fully litter trained and prefers a quiet home with older, cat-savvy kids who will respect his gentle nature. He hasn’t met dogs in rescue, so his reaction to them is unknown.

Wilson is FIV positive, but he’s healthy, at a good weight, and has a beautiful coat. FIV-positive cats can live long, happy lives indoors, just like any other cat. After struggling to survive outside, Wilson is embracing his new indoor life and is ready for a forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and cherished.

Currently fostered with: Wayne, Johan and Ozzy.

I am fixed, microchipped, FIV positive, /FeLv negative, and up to date on vaccinations for my age.

Wilson is FIV+ but that doesn't slow them down! They can still safely live with other cats as long as they gets along with them and can live a normal, healthy life! We just suggest twice a year exams with your regular vet to ensure they stay in tip top shape. FIV can lower a cat's immune system so things like kitty colds can affect them more than a FIV negative cat. But overall there is not "extra" day to day care needed for a FIV positive kitty like Wilson!

More about this rescue

Twin Cities Pet Rescue (TCPR) is a small, 501c3 nonprofit, companion animal rescue organization. TCPR does not have a facility and is 100% foster-based. TCPR rescues dogs, cats and small animals of all breeds; rescuing them from city impounds, puppy mills, and other situations of abuse and neglect. Once rescued, all animals receive veterinary care ranging from spay/neuter, vaccines, microchips, and basic testing to specialty eye surgeries, pet dermatology care, and various other specialty treatments. Once an animal is rescued by TCPR, it remains in a foster home until adopted, no matter how long that might take.
TCPR often rescues animals that are considered “less adoptable” by other rescue organizations, as they are often the ones overlooked and truly left behind; and in need of the most help. These animals might be overlooked due to their age, health status, special needs or breed. TCPR works to help as many animals in need find their furever families as we can, especially helping those animals that need help most.
