Meet Simba - A Gentle Soul Ready for His Forever Home!

Simba is our breathtaking Siamese boy with clear, sparkling blue eyes and a heart just as bright. This medium to longhaired gentleman came to the rescue from a hoarding situation in Yuma, arriving in rough shape and in need of urgent care. He is FIP+ and due to severe neglect he was in significant pain, ultimately requiring a full dental extraction due to stomatitis. But don't let that fool you — he is one of the most loving, affectionate cats you'll ever meet. Simba is a sweet and playful cat with a resilient spirit and a heart full of love.

Simba adores daily brushing and absolutely thrives on human attention. Hes gentle, sweet, and wonderfully expressive. After a slow introduction, he does beautifully with dogs, and hes not shy about telling you when dinner is running late — his meows are part of his charm. He sleeps on the bed with his human curled up with a slight snore.

Because hes toothless, Simba is on a strict wet-food diet, which keeps him comfortable and happy. He isn't picky at all and is very food-motivated — especially if you bring out Churu treats, his favorite bribe. Dry food is off the table, as it can irritate his gumline, but he doesn't miss it one bit. Don't let him tell you otherwise!

One of Simba's most adorable quirks is his playful wrestling routine. He loves gently grabbing your arm or hand and giving a soft chomp. If you say ouch, hell either look shocked and apologetic... or double down with extra enthusiasm. Its his goofy way of bonding, and it never fails to make us laugh.

In his current foster home, he lives with both dogs and other cats and gets along beautifully with all of them. He would be a lovely companion in a multi-pet household.

Health Notes
Simba tested positive for FIV, but this does not prevent him from living a long, healthy, and fulfilling life. With proper care and a loving home, FIV positive cats can thrive just like any other.

Simba has endured so much, yet he remains one of the sweetest souls youll ever meet. Hes ready for a family who will cherish him, keep him safe, and give him the love hes always deserved.
If you think Simba might be the perfect addition to your home, he would love to meet you.

Simba is looking for a loving home that appreciates his quirks, his resilience, and his enormous capacity for affection. If you're searching for a cat who will adore you, entertain you, and melt your heart daily, Simba might be your perfect match. Reduced Adoption Fee of $145 instead of $250

More info on FIV:
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is one of the most common and consequential infectious diseases of cats. In infected cats, FIV attacks the immune system, leaving the cat vulnerable to many other infections. Although cats infected with FIV may appear normal for years, they could eventually suffer from immune deficiency, which allows normally harmless bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi found in the everyday environment to potentially cause severe illnesses. Though there is no cure for FIV, recent studies suggest that cats with FIV commonly live average life spans, as long as they are not also infected with feline leukemia virus (FeLV).

The primary mode of transmission for FIV is through bite wounds from an infected cat. Casual, non-aggressive contact, such as sharing water bowls or mutual grooming, does not appear to be an efficient route of spreading the virus. As a result, cats in households with stable social structures where housemates do not fight are at little to no risk of acquiring FIV infections..

The Siamese cat breed is known for its striking appearance characterized by a slender body, almond shaped blue eyes, and distinct color points on their ears, face, paws, and tail. Renowned for their vocal nature and high intelligence, Siamese cats are affectionate, sociable, and thrive on human interaction. Their sleek coat requires minimal grooming, making them an ideal choice for busy pet owners. With their playful and outgoing personalities, Siamese cats make wonderful companions and are cherished by many cat lovers.
