Get to know Vito, a 13 pound hunk of a guy with street smarts and domestic dreams. Before being rescued, we suspect this full-sized foodie was running an underground tuna operation. With chunky cheeks that like to be pinched, Vito is proof that tough guys secretly want love too! Rescued from animal control to live the life he was destined for, this FIV+ fellow came in with a few medical needs. Fully recovered now from a mild URI, an eye infection and dental work (he has 4 teeth left), this big boy is thriving like a boss! Ready to trade the streets of Baltimore for a cushier lifestyle, Vito loves attention, being brushed, a full belly, and a comfy, warm bed. Vito will do best in a home without dogs or small children, and is okay with cats as long as they give him some space. If you're interested in me, you should know about (FIV). Feline Immunodeficiency Virus is transmitted through deep bite wounds. This means I can safely interact with other cats as long as they get along well and are not fighting. It's important to have a good relationship with your vet, since I have a harder time fighting infections than non-FIV cats. However, cats like me can live normal, full-length lives. For more information on FIV see: https://fivcats.com/ and https://www.kittenlady.org/fiv My adoption fee is $100.00 and AARF wants me to tell you that their adoption package covers all expenses needed to prepare kitties like me for our forever homes. By the time you meet us, we've already been spayed/neutered (if age appropriate) and microchipped. We've been checked by a veterinarian, and we're up to date on age appropriate immunizations against rabies and FVRCP (feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus and panleukopenia). Some of us have had extensive surgeries, dental work, or other necessary procedures. AARF is committed to getting all of us entirely ready for a happy, healthy, love-filled life!
