Addi (Adidas)

My story

Adidas, but more commonly referred to as Addi, is a beautiful long haired black and white beauty. She is also a FIP defeating Baddie! Addi originally came into the IBR fosterhood July 4th, 2024 with her two littermates Vans and Pumas. At 8 weeks they weighed the same as kittens half their age, were suffering from yucky URI's, and scared of the world around them after being scooped off the streets. Over the following weeks the 3 of them gained weight, received medicine for their infections, and soon came out of their shells. It wasn't long until they were all ready to head for adoption! (Or so we thought). 3 days before the shoebox trio were due to head for adoption at Petsmart, Addi started acting off. Her eyes were icky, she was drinking a lot of water, had no appetite, and started walking a little wobbly. It quickly became apparent that Addi's symptoms were quickly worsening, and the rescue acted just as quick. After some consulting with our UCD vet team and other experienced rescuers it was confirmed that Addi had developed FIP. Luckily for Addi our team at IBR were prepared and got her the life saving medication she needed. After a long course of treatment, then a round of observation Addi is now ready to make her mark and find a forever family of her own! Addi was raised in a foster home with other cats, and recently experienced helping raise kittens with her foster family. She wasn't very sure about them at first, but after a while we would catch her covertly playing and grooming them. She has bonded with the adult cats in the household, and will seek them out to sleep and play together. She was raised with two smaller dogs, but is not the biggest fan, and will let them know if they're too close with a quick smack from her paw or a little hiss. Due to the nature of her medical treatment and coming into rescue as a semi-feral kitten, Addi is not super trusting of people when first meeting them. She has bonded with her foster mom, and will allow pets, cuddles, and occasionally being held on her lap. She will tolerate the other human household members, and even occasionally allow some pets as long as they don't rush or crowd her. Addi is EXTREMELY food motivated! She loves treats, and will sing once dinner time approaches. She will zoom from one room to the next while waiting for her nightly serving of wet food. She has also been trained with treats to sit on a scale for weekly weigh-ins while during her treatments, and is extremely smart! Due to her temperament we feel Addi would do best in a low activity/stress household with limited pets and older kids/teens.
