Kiwi (Felv+)

My story

Kiwi is a 1-year-old, incredibly sweet kitty looking for her forever home. This beautiful tabico is one of the sweetest cats I've ever met. She lives for attention and cuddles and will follow you around, wanting to be by your side—or ideally, in your lap and anywhere you go. Kiwi will gamely bat at a feather toy, she'll sit and look out the window when there are no people around, and she enjoys sleeping in her soft cat bed. But more than anything she wants attention, touch, and companionship from people. She will make a great couch potato/Netflix companion/book reading buddy for someone! This super-affectionate girl has not been displaying many ""zoomies”—for her, it’s all about the cuddles. Kiwi is in my foster room in my apartment; it's a full-sized bedroom and she's making good use of the space. She would be okay with gentle older kids but is not a fan of my dog at ALL. Because she is positive for feline leukemia (FeLV), Kiwi is not able to interact with my other cats, so I didn’t get to see how she would respond to them. She needs to go to a home where she is the only cat or where there's another FeLV+ cat only. FeLV is not contagious to humans or dogs but can be transferred to other cats. Annual vet visits, regular immunizations, and your love will help Kiwi maintain a normal, healthy, and happy life. You can read more about FeLV here: https://tinyurl.com/ycxhwcmu. This sweetheart has been super-friendly with all the people she's met --myself, my partner in the home, and friends who have come over. Kiwi would thrive in a home with someone who can give her LOTS of attention. Someone retired or who works from home, whose lap she can sit on all day, would be ideal—or perhaps a child-free millennial who wants to smother a cat with their love 😊 If you’ve got lots of snuggles and pets to give and are ready to pamper a solo cat (or provide a friend for your resident FeLV+ cat), please consider adding this sweet Kiwi to your family!
