Domestic Long Hair Cats Available for Adoption

This handsome 8-month-old boy is Ludvic! He arrived at the Franklin Township Animal Shelter with his sister Eva (also available for adoption) and the two of them share a kitty condo. Ludvic enjoys spending time with people and will approach you as soon as you open his cat condo door, looking to roam around the room. He has a quiet demeanor, likes to be petted, but is not a fan of being held. He’d make a nice companion in a home with older children.

It’s important for any potential adopter to know that Ludvic has tested positive for feline coronavirus. Feline coronavirus (FCoV) is a common virus in cats, usually causing no symptoms or mild symptoms like diarrhea (which he currently does not have), but it can mutate into a deadly form called Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP). Most cats clear the infection, but some become persistent carriers, shedding the virus and potentially increasing the risk of FIP in multi-cat environments.

For this reason, Ludvic should be the only cat in the household unless you already have a cat who tested positive for FCoV. Right now he is asymptomatic and ready to be adopted. We’re hoping that there’s someone out there who is willing to give Ludvic a loving forever home. The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday-Friday 12-3 and Saturdays 12-6.

Domestic Long Hairs are loving and affectionate companions, making them popular pets in households around the world. While their exact origins may be unknown, their charming personalities and striking appearance make them a favorite choice for many cat lovers looking for a loyal and beautiful feline friend.
