Hi I’m Sammy, and sadly, I’ve been waiting for a forever home for many months! But let me tell you about myself, and then you’ll know what a FANTASTIC cat I am! I’m a big boy, which is a bonus because there’s more of me to love and cuddle! And I love to cuddle!! I’m very laid back, confident, and just an all around super nice cat! Plus, I am very very handsome (and modest!) My foster mom thinks I’m funny, and loves how I sit with my hind legs straight out behind me (see how talented I am?) She also loves taking me for walks on my harness, and I love that too! I’m a great friend and companion! Now for the news that seems to make people nervous about me – I’m FIV and FeLV positive, which means I’ve been exposed to those viruses. But there’s a lot of information about those viruses that you should know before you decide against adopting me! First, there are stages of each disease, and us FIV/FeLV cats can still live good, long lives! The good thing about me is that I’m healthy and young! I can even live with another cat – as long as the other cat is vaccinated for FeLV! I can also live with another FeLv cat. Or I can be the only king of your household! Please think about giving me a chance! I’m a wonderful cat! And only a very special person should have me! I know whoever does will have a very big heart Read on below about FIV and FeLV. Apply Here to make Sammy a part of your family! Napetrescue.org/adopt FIV is an immune system virus, meaning a cat could have a reduced ability to fight infection if they get sick. Most FIV-infected cats live many years—sometimes their entire lives—without any visible effects from the virus, so an FIV-positive diagnosis is not cause for alarm. FIV is primarily transmitted through a deep bite wound. Non-aggressive cats pose no danger to other cats. Once neutered, most cats are not aggressive. The virus does not spread through mutual grooming, sharing food and water bowls, or sharing a litter box. Humans cannot get it. The virus has a long incubation period, meaning that a cat who tests FIV-positive may live free of FIV-related disease for a lifetime! Did you know that almost all shelters now adopt out FIV cats? FIV cats deserve a good loving home just like any other cat! FeLV: Cats that test positive for FeLV tend to have shorter lifespans, however during the early stages of infection, cats may not display any symptoms. If provided proper care and management, many cats with FeLV live years in good health. FeLV is only contagious to cats and doesn’t affect people, dogs, or other animals. The virus is not persistent in the environment and typically only survives a couple hours outside a cat’s body. Many cats with FeLV have a good quality of life and can live many years in good health if the virus and their symptoms are managed well.

Seeking forever home!! Chewy & Mama These two are a mother and son bonded FIV+ pair Chewy is about 4 years old and his mother is around 6! They love to be together and she still "mothers" him? What is FIV Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is a lentivirus, like HIV, that affects cats around the world. The virus attacks and compromises a cat’s immune system, making FIV positive cats more susceptible to infection. FIV is often confused with Feline Leukemia Virus (FelV). While Feline Leukemia can also cause immunosuppression, Feline Leukemia also leads to the development of cancers, anemia, and kidney disease. FIV is only contagious among cats and difficult to transmit. It is also slow-acting, so cats generally do not show any symptoms until years after being infected. The amount of time it takes for the virus to make a cat become immune compromised can vary, but once symptomatic, FIV positive cats are more vulnerable to contracting other diseases. However, with the proper care, FIV positive cats can live healthy, happy lives. Though there is no known cure, FIV is far from a death sentence for FIV+kitties. They have weaker immune systems, but cats who test positive for FIV can live fulfilling and happy lives like any other cats, and can live for many, many years! These two have been searching for a home to call their own and would make the perfect addition to any family?

Meet Puma! Puma is a gorgeous, long-haired former scaredy cat who was found wandering around during the coldest, snowiest week in January. Thankfully a kind soul rescued him from the cold! From there came a visit to the vet, where he was given a clean bill of health! Then came a whole new world for him, being inside, and experiencing human love. Reticent at first, he hid at his foster home for two months, until one night in March he decided he had something to say! He has been chatting ever since and has come to learn that making biscuits in his foster mom’s lap is much better than wandering the snowy streets! Puma is a young cat, possibly 1-2 years old. He’s very playful and loves to chase and jump for his feather toy! Puma loves lap time and has a hearty purr. His litterbox manners are pristine, definitely the habits of a true indoor gentleman. He is still learning how to control his excitement over getting love and attention, so there are the occasional “love bites” and swats, but he’s easily redirected to his feather toy. He just doesn’t know what to do yet with all of his big feelings! Puma will continue to progress over time, but is now ready to bond with his forever family. You will love this soft, silky, playful, loving, full of personality ebony ball of fur! Please ask to meet him; he is in foster care. If you are interested in adopting Puma, please fill out our form at: http://napetrescue.org/adopt

Meet Felix: The Nature-Loving Cuddlebug! Felix is a striking black, long-haired kitty with mesmerizing yellow eyes! Felix is always ready for an adventure in his stylish red harness. He loves exploring the outdoors, whether it’s birdwatching, squirrel and possum gazing, or simply enjoying the fresh air. Felix is also a cuddle enthusiast, welcoming gentle touches on his toes, belly, ears, head, and especially under his chin. Felix is a kitty who is not only beautiful but has a beautiful personality to match! He has a heart full of love and is just waiting for someone to share it with! Due to his time as a stray prior to being rescued, Felix has tested positive for the feline leukemia virus, which is contagious to other cats, but not to humans. So, he should be in a single cat household or with another positive kitty. There is also a feline leukemia vaccine which could protect another negative cat! Felix is a young kitty and likely has many years to live with good care! He is only a little over a year old. Please give this nice, gentle boy a chance, won't you? Ready to bring this charming explorer home? Apply to adopt Felix at napetrescue.org/adopt today!
