Betty Davis

My story

Talk about a rough start to life. Bette Davis and her litter of seven babies, were abandoned shortly after birth. Even though AALOC was at maximum capacity we couldn’t turn our back on this momma cat and her young family. Betty Davis is a very friendly mackerel tabby. She loves to be petted and receive human attention. Give her a sunny windowsill and she'll sit there for hours. This is not a get her and forget her type of independent cat. Betty needs lots of love! Betty has recently been diagnosed with FIV, Feline Immunodeficiency Virus. FIV is a virus that attacks and weakens a cat's immune system, similar to HIV in humans. It's a common infection in cats, but not a death sentence. Although there's no cure for FIV, many cats can live long, healthy lives with proper care. FIV can be transmitted to other cats through bites but not through casual contact from sharing food or water bowls, and FIV cannot be transmitted to dogs or humans. We are recommending that Betty Davis be adopted into a single cat family or one with another FIV positive cat. Please submit an application to adopt Betty Davis at www.AALOC.org. Once your application is reviewed and approved we will contact you to make an appointment to visit us at AALOC to meet Betty and get to know her a bit. Adoption donation of $100 per cat includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, and a microchip. Applications require a veterinary reference and home visit. We adopt to residents of Orange County, CA and surrounding areas. Please note: For families with children, we require children to be 10 years of age or older, although exceptions are made depending on the circumstances. For more information on our adoption policies visit our website at www.AALOC.org or contact us by e-mail at aaloc@aaloc.org.

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