About Opal

Meet Opal, a stunning young female cat who seems to have stepped right out of a jewelry box, flaunting a beautiful cream and white coat. With her extraordinary eyes and a sweet little pink nose, she carries herself with an air of sophistication that’s hard to miss. Opal appreciates a slow introduction and believes that relationships should be nurtured with a touch of conversation and gentle affection. Once she feels at home, her charming personality shines through. While she is FIV positive, rest assured that many FIV positive cats lead long, happy lives with loving care. FIV is not transferable to humans, nor is it easily spread among cats. She is a pillow hog, claiming your heart and your side of the bed with absolute determination. Opal needs an adopter who will look past her diagnosis and see the wonderful companion she can be. If you're ready to give her some time and patience, she'll reward you with love and loyalty. Give this lovely lady a chance, and you won't regret it. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
