About Ferret

Ferret is a social kitten who lights up when people are around. If you’re nearby, you can expect him curled up on your chest and purring with pure contentment. Underneath his fancy black and white tuxedo coat, he’s bursting with energy—always on the move with zoomies, playful pounces, and just enough mischief to keep life interesting. It’s not just his looks that impress, but the way he makes himself part of the action and brings joy to everyone around. Ferret is positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV), which means a weaker immune system and a likely shorter life, but don’t let that put you off—'FeLVies' like Ferret act just like any other cat for most of their days. He should only share a home with other FeLV+ cats, though dogs and other animals are fine. His adoption includes FeLV-related support after he goes home, and his rescue provides lifetime cat behavior guidance if you have questions. Ferret comes vet-checked, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. And—fun fact—he’s a Pisces, so affection and snuggles might just be his superpower. Ready to bring home a loving, lively companion?
