About Cartier

Cartier, a striking black Domestic Long Hair, was found in an outdoor colony in New Kensington. Initially part of a TNR group, he was brought to the shelter after being discovered to be FIV+ and FeLV+. This caring move ensures he receives the warmth and love he needs. Currently, Cartier is a bit timid, as he's still adjusting to human companionship. With some patience and time, he will learn to trust and blossom into a loving companion. It's important to note that Cartier does not get along with children, but he is friendly with other cats. If you're interested in giving Cartier a forever home, you can visit our website and complete an adoption application. Ready to start your journey with Cartier?
