Story
Azul is a stud muffin of a big boy cat. We don’t know what is bigger – his beautiful blue eyes or his enormous round head.
We estimate him to weigh around 15 lbs and believe he is around 5-6 years old.
Azul was found roaming a neighborhood along the Texas Mexico border, where a good Samaritan saw him and knew she had to help him. He was super scrawny, covered in fleas, tons of missing hair and scabs all over his body.
After about 6 weeks, Azul is fully healed, all of his hair has grown back, and he is ready for his forever home.
Despite his age, he is very playful and active. He loves to be around people and loves to play with his toys.
Cuddling is one of his favorite things.
Azul is in a foster home where he is around other cats and dogs. Even though he is big, he gets along wonderfully with other cats!
He has met dogs in the current foster home and has no issues with them. He can live happily with other dogs and cats in the home!
Azul would love to be a lap cat and be loved every day and all day.
He does NOT mark.
Azul is neutered, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped and given a clean bill of health from a veterinarian prior to adoption/transport.
PLEASE READ ABOUT AZUL:
Azul is a sweet, gentle soul who has recently tested positive for FIV.
This means he needs an indoor-only home where he can be pampered and live a long, healthy life. FIV-positive cats are often the most affectionate! Azul is a total lovebug who is looking for a cozy spot to nap and a family to love.
Don't let FIV scare you — it's just a label, not a limitation!
He is a very healthy boy that you would not even know had FIV if not for the test. Most cats don’t show symptoms! Please consider reading some facts about FIV and let us know if you would still like to be considered for his adoption.
Azul is ready to bring joy to your home. We look forward to hearing back from you.
Here are some facts and information to help you learn about FIV:
FIV is Not a Death Sentence: FIV is a slow-acting virus that affects a cat's immune system, not a death sentence.
Many FIV+ cats live long, normal lives (10-15+ years) and never show symptoms.
Perfectly Safe for Families: FIV is not transmissible to humans, dogs, or other non-feline pets.
Debunking Myths About Transmission of FIV: Casual Contact is Safe: Contrary to popular belief, FIV is not spread through litter boxes, water bowls, or grooming. Mainly Spreads Through Fighting: The virus is primarily passed through deep, penetrating bite wounds, usually among unneutered, aggressive strays. Safe to Live with Negative Cats: In a stable, non-aggressive home, FIV+ cats can live peacefully with FIV-negative cats.
