Pura Vida

My story

Snuggly, Calm, Social Pura Vida takes on the attitude of his name’s meaning well - life is purely simple and good! He warms up easily to new people, and loves to hang out while his humans go about their day. Night time is also highly preferable, as Pura Vida loves to snuggle in close and snooze at his human’s feet while they sleep! It doesn’t take much to lift his spirits and keep him cozy and happy! Seeing the people he loves is a simple joy for Pura Vida. While he is generally a laidback and calm feline, he will show great excitement with a little yell or noise when he sees his humans after the first time in a while, or knows they are about to sit down and hang out with him. He can’t help himself! A home where someone is able to be a social presence more often than not would be purr-fect for Pura Vida! He adores having company, and gives the love and affection right back. This sleek handsome feline will be a delightful addition to any home environment. Reach out to APA! today to bring Pura Vida home and let the good times commence! Pura Vida has tested positive for Feline Leukemia. FeLV is not a type of cancer. It's a virus that causes a weaker immune system and often a shorter life-span. For the most part, 'FeLVies' are just like any other cat. APA! waives the adoption fees of these cats, and provides FeLV-related treatment and support post-adoption. Pura Vida can only live with other FeLV+ cats, but dogs and other animals are just fine! Any questions? We'd love to talk with you about FeLV care. All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team. For further information or to meet Pura Vida, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Pura Vida, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
