Sassafras (DOB 6/17) is ready for immediate adoption.
She may have started out as a little on the spicy side, but this sweet girl has discovered that people can be pretty great.
She’s cautious when she first meets you and may need a little time to decide if you’re trustworthy. But once you’re in her circle, she becomes incredibly affectionate and absolutely loves attention.
Like any kitten, she’s full of energy and loves playing with her toys. She’s curious, playful, silly, and has the sweetest personality once she lets her guard down.
From a spicy little kitty to affectionate little lovebug, she’s come such a long way. She just needs someone willing to give her a little patience at first and in return, you’ll get a playful, loving companion who will adore you once she knows you’re safe.
Sassafrass has tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). Because FeLV can be transmitted between cats through close, prolonged contact, Sassafrass will need a home where she is either the only cat or lives with other FeLV-positive cats.
Being FeLV+ doesn’t change who Sassafrass is or how deserving she is of a loving home. FeLV-positive cats can enjoy happy, meaningful lives, but their immune systems may be more vulnerable to illness. Sassafrass should live indoors only, receive regular veterinary care, and be seen promptly if something seems off. With FeLV+ cats, illnesses that might otherwise seem minor are worth addressing early.
For the right family, Sassafrass has just as much love, personality, and companionship to give as any other cat. Her diagnosis is part of her story, but it certainly isn’t the most interesting thing about her.
Upon adoption, Sassafras will be spayed and vaccinated. She tested negative for FIV. She also has a pre-registered microchip.
