Gentle Survivor Hoping for the Loving Home She’s Always Deserved Transport available for approved adopters. Hi… I’m a sweet girl who had a very hard start in life, but I’m hoping my future will be filled with kindness and love. I was born on the streets and survived out there for a couple of years on my own. Eventually, a wonderful police officer was able to trap me and get me the help I needed. When my foster mom first saw me, she could tell that life hadn’t been easy for me. I have scars on my neck from an old attack, and it was clear I had been through more than any cat should. But even after everything I experienced, it only took a few days for me to realize my foster mom was someone I could trust. Now when I see her, I run to greet her. 🐾 I can still be a little shy when meeting new people, but if you give me patience and kindness, you’ll see my true personality. I’m actually a very sweet and affectionate girl who loves gentle pets. And when I really trust you, I’ll give you little nose bumps—my special “Eskimo kisses”—to show you how much I appreciate you. These days I enjoy the quiet things in life. A peaceful home where I can lounge in sunny windows, watch birds, or curl up on a chair and observe the world would make me very happy. I would do best as the only cat in the home, but I do get along well with calm dogs who respect my space. I am also FIV positive, but that doesn’t mean I can’t live a long, happy, normal life with the right family. I just need a loving home and routine veterinary care like any other cat. FIV Myths vs. Facts • Myth: FIV+ cats have very short lives. Fact: Many FIV+ cats live long, healthy lives. • Myth: FIV spreads easily between cats. Fact: FIV is primarily spread through deep bite wounds, not through sharing bowls, grooming, or living together peacefully. • Myth: FIV+ cats are always sick. Fact: Most FIV+ cats live normal, happy lives with regular care. After everything I’ve been through, all I really want is a calm home and someone who will love me. I’ve waited a long time for kindness, and I promise I have so much love to give in return. ❤️ I’m fully vetted and ready to go.
