About Wheatus

Wheatus is not just a clever name; he's a charismatic socialite ready to steal your heart. This friendly guy thrives on affection, often found napping curled up on your chest. He’s gentle, playful, and has a knack for charming everyone around him. Though he's FIV-positive, rest assured that with proper care, he can live a long and fulfilling life. FIV is only transmitted through deep bite wounds, so Wheatus can peacefully coexist with FIV-negative cats as long as they get along. His daily routine is essential to his happiness, and he makes sure you’re on track for meal times. He loves watching birds from the window and has a unique fondness for his scratching post, which he has claimed as his lounging spot. Wheatus has a close bond with his brother Beelzebub, and ideally, they would love to find a forever home together. This sweet boy is currently located in Tampa, FL, fully vetted and up to date on shots. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
