I am Orange's foster. He is about 3 years old. One evening, I was out walking in the neighborhood and I saw a very orange kitty running towards me while meowing loudly. When he reached my feet, he flipped over and offered me his tummy spread eagle to pat. Then he ran over to another neighbor watching me and did the same thing. The next day, he was back and again offering his tummy to pat. Well you know the story...I figured he was dumped or someone died and he was turned out to survive on his own. As the story goes, off to the vet we went to get neutered and shots. When I went to pick him up, as the technician put him in his carrier, she said "Oh my gosh, he is so cute". Then she said he was in perfect health except tested FIV positive. It used to be thought that FIV cats should be put down but that has changed over the years and that diagnosis is not a death sentence. It just means that a cat needs what all cats need and some few get: a good, safe home inside and not exposed to all the dangers and risks on a public street with cars, coyotes and frequently cruelty. I brought him home to the cat colony in my garage apartment behind my house. After meeting and greeting, all the cats got back to the serious business of sleeping until the next meal. He had a male best friend who just got adopted so he would be good with another cat. He is not agressive at all with the various male and female cats. He is not a fussy eater, loves to sit in a sunny window and plays with toys and other cats. I have read more than once and speak from experience with past orange kitties, they are different. Extremely loving and people oriented. That's his story so let us know if you would like to adopt this loving boy. Oh, and his name is Orange!
