Pickles

My story

Meet Pickles. Pickles is a young tabby who is now around 7 months old. She is extremely sweet and has been raised in a loving home since she was just a few days old. When you look at Pickles, she looks like any other tabby- playful, healthy and always ready for her next adventure. Pickles, however, has tested positive for the feline leukemia virus, which affects between 2-3% of all cats in the country. There is a lot of information online about FeLV and it can be overwhelming trying to understand the implications for affected cats. There are basically no hard rules as it affects all cats differently. Some are severely immuno-compromised and live short lives while others can survive for many years, without any harmful symptoms. As it is contagious to other cats, it is recommended that FeLV cats be the only cat in the home or that they be housed with other FeLV positive cats. We know that the right family is out there for Pickles. We just need to find them. For more info, please contact us at animaladvocatesofnorthtexas@ymail.com.
