Hello! My name is Poet. I am a beautiful, black cat who is a bit introverted at first, but have warmed up to staff here at CARE very fast. I love head scratches and being pet; its the way to my heart! Having a sanctuary to hide in when I am sleepy is a must as well.
Something special about me is that I am FIV+. FIV is Feline Immunodeficiency Virus. I should live a long and healthy life but need some special care in my new home. FIV+ cats should be kept exclusively indoors, free from unnecessary stress and fed a high-quality diet. Most importantly, any health issues that do arise - be it a dental issue, parasite infestation or common feline infections (like a UTI) should be dealt with as soon as possible by bringing me to the vet. FIV is not transferable to humans or dogs and is very hard to transfer to other cats.
If you have room in your heart for a special boy like me, fill our an adoption survey today! Feel free to call C.A.R.E. for more information too.
