Mickie - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Everett, Washington

Meet Mickie! :)

Mickie is estimated to be 6 years old. He is neutered, vaccinated Rabies and 1st round FVRCP, flea treated, dewormed and microchipped.

Mickie showed up in my complex awhile back. I first saw him around May and he moved to another building so I didn't see him again until July when I was able to trap him and get him fixed. I suspect he's been outside for a good while. He had a laceration on his leg that needed a suture and had multiple fight wounds on his body. I witnessed him around a couple tom cats here and I don't think Mickie was the one to start a fight. When he went to the new building, he found a home with a couple of indoor/outdoor cats and he would call for them. He likes cats and would benefit from a cat companion but would also be okay as an only cat. It's obvious that at some point he did live inside with a family. Mickie is a very sweet boy. He loves to eat and is the chattiest cat that I've met - he's always talking.

Unfortunately, due to his outdoor time, he contracted FIV. FIV is akin to HIV in humans. It is only transferable to cats via a bite. Like I mentioned, I don't think he was the one starting fights. He has met multiple cats in foster and has been friendly with everyone. I recommend that adopters read up on FIV. It compromises his immune system so he is more susceptible to infection and illness. However, he can live a long and happy life even with FIV. Living inside will 100% reduce his risk of contracting infections and illnesses that complicate his health.

Mickie's adoption fee is $50. I require potential adopters to meet with me to ask questions and interact with Mickie. I live in S Everett near Mariner HS.
