Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Montclair, New Jersey

Meet Smee, a 2-year-old male with a stunning buff-colored coat and a heart made of pure gold. Smee is a love bug—he is incredibly friendly, sweet, and truly lives for your attention. Whether you’re working at your desk or relaxing on the couch, Smee will be right there, hoping for a few head scratches and a warm lap to snuggle in.
🐾 Smee's Special Health Note: FeLV+
Smee has tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). While this means he has a compromised immune system and may have a shorter lifespan than some other cats, it doesn’t stop him from living a vibrant, happy, and love-filled life right now. FeLV is only contagious to other cats—it cannot be spread to humans, dogs, or other non-feline pets.
🏠 Smee's Ideal Home
Because FeLV is transmissible between cats through shared bowls, grooming, or close contact, Smee has some specific (but easy!) home requirements to keep everyone safe:
Solo Star or FeLV Friends: Smee must be the only cat in your home, OR he can join a household with other FeLV-positive cats. Good news for pup lovers—Smee can safely live with your dogs!
Indoors Only: To protect his immune system and prevent the spread of the virus to community cats, Smee needs to remain a strictly indoor-only companion.
❤️ Why Adopt Smee?
Adopting an FeLV+ cat like Smee is an incredibly rewarding experience. You’re giving a "special needs" kitty a chance to be cherished in a real home, and in return, you get 100% of his undivided devotion. He's just looking for a family to call his own.
