About Boomer

Meet Boomer, our newest feline friend at Austin Pets Alive! This young male Domestic Short Hair is full of charm and ready to make a special bond with the right family. Boomer is a playful little guy with a striking orange and buff coat, eager for love and attention. He has tested positive for Feline Leukemia (FeLV), a condition that demands some special considerations. While FeLV can lead to a shorter lifespan, it isn’t a death sentence; many ‘FeLVies’ lead joyful lives. He needs to be in a home with other FeLV-positive cats, but he gets along well with dogs and other animals. The team at APA! is committed to providing all necessary care and support for him, and will be there every step of the way. All cats at APA! are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and come with a microchip for safety. If you're interested in Boomer, feel free to contact us at adopt@austinpetsalive.org. Give him a chance at a happy home!
