My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Zelda is a sweet, playful, and affectionate girl who is looking for a special home where she can be the center of attention. She loves cuddling with her people, playing with toys, and indulging in some catnip fun. Her friendly and loving personality shines through in every interaction, and she’s sure to bring joy and companionship to her new family. Zelda does have Feline Leukemia (FeLV), a cat-only virus that shortens lifespan but doesn’t affect her day-to-day happiness or energy while she’s healthy. Cats with FeLV often remain lively, loving, and full of life for years, and Zelda deserves a home where she can enjoy every moment surrounded by care and affection. Because Zelda prefers to be the only cat in the household, she’s looking for a home where she can receive all the love and attention she deserves without sharing it with other felines. If you’re ready to open your heart to a loving, playful companion who will cherish every cuddle and sunny spot, Zelda is waiting to meet you!
Looking to adopt a special cat who truly needs your help? Come meet this Feline Leukemia (FeLV) positive cat today! Feline Leukemia (FeLV) is a cat-only virus that shortens their lifespan significantly. Cats with FeLV are generally healthy and free of symptoms until the end of their time with us and deserve a loving family to enjoy all of life’s pleasures with. If you have no other kitties at home (or happen to already have FeLV+ cats), please consider adopting an FeLV+ cat today!
