Otis, Tabby For Adoption In Lenhartsville, Pennsylvania

Location:

Lenhartsville, PA

Description:

Meet the overly friendly orange tabby boy is Otis. You couldn't ask for a sweeter,outgoing kitty! Otis was rescued from a neighborhood trying to survive outside. He must have been somebody's pet, he adjusts quickly to new people and places. He loves being petted and is happy to be held. Ultimately, all this handsome orange tabby wants is attention from people. Otis gets along well with the other kitties and is often seen rubbing up against them. He just wants to be everybody's friend. He is on the calmer side but does enjoy playtime. His foster mom says he is such a good boy and will be a great addition to any household. We consider Otis special needs because he tested positive for FIV. This is not Feline Leukemia, which he tested negative for. Because he has a very friendly disposition around other cats, he does not pose a risk to transmitting FIV and does not have to be an only cat. FIV is transmitted by deep bite wounds from an infected cat and is prevalent among intact male cats who are fighting for territory and mates. Because of this, if the positive cat is not aggressive toward other cats, it is safe for them to live in a multi-cat home. FIV has a very unfair stigma even within the vet & cat rescue community. We have many current resources on FIV which we'd be happy to refer you to and also many experiences with FIV+ cats. We are hopeful someone will have an open mind (or is already well informed about FIV!) and come to meet Otis. He won't let you down! Otis is about 2.5 years old ( as of 4/1/24), neutered, up to date on vaccinations, negative for FeLV but he is positive for FIV. Don't let that scare you though. Otis can live a normal life even with other cats. To meet the amazing Otis, please email Lori at apcatrescue@gmail.comAdoption processTo begin the adoption process, you must fill out an application.
