Marlin is FeLV positive, meaning he has Feline Leukemia Virus, a condition that impacts his immune system. While this isn't cancer, it does weaken his defenses and shortens his expected lifespan compared to most cats. Still, Marlin can absolutely enjoy a loving, happy, and active life. It's just important he only share space with other FeLV positive cats, as the virus spreads through social contact. If you're looking to welcome a special cat and can provide the right setup to keep him healthy and safe, Marlin could be a great fit for your home. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
