About Earl

Meet Earl, a seasoned gentleman of roughly 10 years who’s looking for a cozy, quiet retirement as the only cat in a loving home. Earl is neutered, microchipped, and his vaccinations are current. He’s FeLV positive, which means his immune system is compromised, so he must live indoors and be the only cat to keep himself—and others—safe. If you want to meet him, just ask staff for a private introduction, since he lives away from the other cats. Earl’s start wasn’t easy—he arrived underweight and ill, but with good care, he’s bounced back and now thrives. He has simple tastes: a soft bed, meaty bits for dinner, and a steady supply of gentle petting (don’t stop, or you’ll be headbutted). He’s social and affectionate when comfortable, with a surprisingly chatty streak. Researching FeLV is a smart move before taking him home, as it can lead to complex medical needs—even though Earl does well right now, he’ll need extra care and routine attention. Earl’s next chapter should be restful and full of love, with people who savor having a loyal, dignified companion. If you want to learn more or meet Earl, drop by during open hours—he’ll be waiting, ready to charm you. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
