Pea Pod is a 3-year-old brown and white tabby with a tender heart and a gentle spirit. This sweet girl can be a bit nervous at first, so she's looking for a patient, understanding home where she can take things at her own pace. New environments can feel overwhelming to her, but with time and kindness, she begins to show her true, loving nature.
Pea Pod feels safest tucked into cozy little nooks where she can relax and observe the world around her. These quiet hiding spots help her build confidence, and once she feels secure, she slowly starts to come out and connect.
She has FIV, which means she has a weaker immune system. Cats with FIV can live long, happy lives, but she will need to be the only cat or live with other FIV-positive cats.
In the right home, Pea Pod will truly blossom into a devoted and affectionate companion. She just needs someone willing to give her the time and love she deserves-and in return, she'll offer a bond that's incredibly special. She's available for adoption or forever foster. Forever foster means that you provide the love and home, and we provide everything else! Come meet her at the Animal Protective League, located at 1001 Taintor Road in Springfield. We are open every day from noon to 5 p.m.
