About Kovu

Meet Kovu, a charming and dignified senior cat looking for his forever home. At 11 years old, he's already seen quite a bit of life, having endured challenges before finding his way to safety. Kovu is easygoing and enjoys the company of people, but he might not be the best fit for homes with young children due to occasionally feeling a bit overwhelmed. This resilient guy was found outside an apartment building, having faced hardship and healed from prior injuries. Though he contracted Feline AIDS (FIV) during those tough times, he is otherwise healthy, with good bloodwork results. FIV impacts his care slightly, as he should be the only cat in the household to avoid health risks. Kovu’s estimated birthdate is November 1, 2015, which means he has the wise spirit of a true feline gentleman. He's excited to find someone who can give him the love and stability he truly deserves.
