About Willow

Meet Willow, a delightful 1-year-old domestic shorthair with a charming tortie-and-white coat. Found stealing hearts outside a storefront in Peralta, this affectionate girl has plenty of love to give. Willow's personality shines through as she playfully rolls around for attention and eagerly rushes to join you at mealtime. Though Willow is FIV positive, it's just a small part of who she is. Many FIV+ cats lead happy and full lives, and the virus generally spreads through deep bites, so she can safely coexist with non-FIV friends. We recommend discussing her care with your vet, or you can stop by the adoption center for more information on FIV cats. Plus, with her already spayed status and friendly demeanor, Willow is more than ready to become a cherished member of any loving home. You can meet her today at the PetSmart located on Academy and Wyoming. PACA only adopts to the Albuquerque Metro Area. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
