About Chickpea

Chickpea is one half of a dynamic duo ready to charm your heart. At just 20 weeks old, this affectionate male kitten is a sibling to Ireland, and together, they spread joy wherever they go. Both kittens are FeLV-positive, but don't let that scare you—FeLV-positive cats can lead happy lives, and they have so much love to give. They need a home with other FeLV-positive cats, but they also get along great with dogs and other animals. Chickpea doesn’t have to be adopted with Ireland, but it’s hard not to fall for both of them! They bring double the love and companionship into any home. The Boone Area Humane Society waives their adoption fees and offers continuous support for adopters of FeLV-positive animals. Could Chickpea be the purr-fect addition to your family?
