About Sabi Sabi

Sabi Sabi came to Felines & Friends as a stray from a colony in Santa Fe and has tested positive for FIV. Fortunately, he shows no symptoms and is expected to lead a normal life. While it's common to advise placing FIV+ cats in homes with no other cats or with other FIV+ cats, many cats live happily in mixed households. According to experts, FIV typically spreads through aggressive interactions rather than casual contact, so families with a variety of cats can still consider adoption. This handsome boy, named after the game preserve in Kruger National Park, boasts a charming sand-colored coat. Sabi Sabi would thrive in a serene home where he can bask in the sun by a window and revel in the affection of his family. In West African Pidgin English, "Sabi" means to know or understand, and he certainly knows how to make a house feel like home. Sabi Sabi is currently undergoing treatment for an eye issue but is still ready for adoption. If you think you can offer Sabi Sabi the love and tranquility he deserves, don't hesitate to apply and learn more. **Adoption Fee: $200**
