Story

This kitty showed up in our yard ~10 days ago, got into yowling contests with our feral male Siamese named Simon. We did not want another feral but thought Simon might like company; however, within the past few days the stray has become very aggressive toward Simon and chased him away. I moved the stray into our 3-season room with a radiator, so he/she (gender unknown) has been warm and has eaten all food provided (very hungry), but our house is tiny; Simon still sees the stray and only stays long enough to grab some food. The stray is otherwise friendly, walked into the house and does not mind being picked up/held, likes belly rubs, etc. and purrs quite a bit. Seems very much like a former indoor cat that either wandered off or was dumped. I took to the vets to scan for a chip (negative) but otherwise have not had any health checks done and again gender is unknown. Seems like a good potential only cat, or maybe with other cats (seems to like our pup too) in the right situation.

Story

I marked Unknown for Good with cats because Paddington gets along well with our male tabby (in one of the photos), but she attacks our shy tortoiseshell. We tried to get them to at least tolerate each other (Feliway, calming powder, scent transfer, etc.), but the problem has actually gotten worse. She found our yard as a tiny kitten, maybe 6-8 weeks old, last summer (2024); we had two feral cats and she started eating their food. We caught her and took her in; and as noted in the description is spayed and up to date on all of her shots. She enjoys pets, cuddling, and being held/carried - plus playing with my shoelaces - and can play hard w/our male tabby and our terrier puppy (though the puppy chases her quite a bit) - but everything changes whenever Paddington sees our tortie. We think she would be ideal as an only cat, or maybe in a house with a confident, playful male and/or a dog. We hate to lose her, but she is in a large multi-level kennel much of the day and is not fair to her.

Story

FELV+DOB: 9/25/2023 Mr. Peabody’s story started on the streets. Found as a young stray in rough shape, he was brought to us in July 2024 and has since made a full recovery. Today, this handsome orange tabby is healthy, playful, and—no exaggeration—one of the sweetest cats we’ve ever met. From the moment you meet him, Mr. Peabody will trot right up for pets, head bumps, and purrs. He loves everyone—strangers, visitors, staff—and his affectionate, easygoing nature makes him the kind of cat who instantly wins hearts. During his veterinary care, we discovered that Mr. Peabody is FeLV-positive (Feline Leukemia Virus). FeLV is a viral infection that affects the immune system, making it harder for a cat’s body to fight off infections. While it’s not curable, it is manageable with good veterinary care, a healthy diet, and a stress-free indoor lifestyle. Cats with FeLV need routine wellness checks, prompt treatment for any illness, and regular preventative care like vaccines and parasite control. FeLV is spread between cats through close contact (like grooming or sharing food bowls), so Mr. Peabody must either be an only cat or live with other FeLV-positive companions. It’s important to know that FeLV affects cats differently—some live only a few years, while others remain healthy for much longer. Right now, Mr. Peabody is in excellent health, full of playful kitten energy, and showing no signs of illness. What he needs most is a loving home where he can enjoy life to the fullest, surrounded by people who adore him as much as he’ll adore them.

One of the biggest misconceptions about feline leukemia, which suppresses a cat’s immune system, is that it is an automatic death sentence. There are many variables, however, that come into play that determine how FeLV will affect a particular cat.

Story

FIV+, DiabeticDOB: 10/24/2021 Snowdrift is a sweet and affectionate 3 year old cat looking for a forever home or foster family. Despite being found as a stray, he has a loving personality and adores attention, especially when being brushed. Snowdrift is diabetic and FIV+ but can live a long, happy life with proper care. He can coexist well with other cats but swats at dogs. Feline Immunodeficiency Virus positive cats can live normal lives both in quality and duration. They do take special care in terms of monitoring them for signs of infection. FIV can be passed from cat to cat via deep bite wounds, but not from casual contact so positive cats can live with negative cats without the fear of spreading FIV as long as they get along and are spayed/neutered.
