Our FIV+ Cats

LILYIMG_7463
Lily is approximately 3 1/2 years old as of April 2021. She was rescued as a stray in rural Illinois. Lily is very sweet and gets along well with other cats.

She is FIV+, but it really isn’t a big deal. She can live a long, healthy and happy life with other cats. If you are looking to add a lovebug like Lily to your household, please email havenforhomeless@sbcglobal.net.

MAVERICKIMG_7463
Maverick is approximately 2 1/2 as of April 2021. He was rescued as part of a TNR project and was deemed too friendly to go back outside. He is on the shy side. He gets along well with other cats.

He is FIV+, but (say it with us!) it really isn’t a big deal. He can live a long, healthy and happy life with other cats. If you are looking to add a lovebug like Maverick to your household, please email havenforhomeless@sbcglobal.net.

SAM
Sam is a TNR from a colony of cats in The Grove. He was thought to be just one out of about 40-50 cats that an older gentleman, who lived nearby on  Arco, fed but never fixed. According to neighbors, the older man had been feeding stray cats for decades. Sam was thought to be feral’ish, or more of a stray, loner type of cat, but after TNR, neutering and being vetted, it was clear that he was a very loving and easy-going boy. He lived in one of my outdoor enclosures, never again being allowed to roam freely outdoors, for a few years, before moving inside. He did not need time to adjust to living the life of a spoiled, indoor only housecat, or to living with other cats. He easily got along with everyone from day one. He was very tolerant of Clarisse, my dog. Sam loves to be pet and loved on, and is a biscuit-making champ. If you put your hand out, he will outstretch his paw and put it in your hand. He also does this to let you know he wants more loving. If you are interested, email havenforhomeless@sbcglobal.net.

 

He is FIV+, but as we all know that is not a big deal. FIV+ cats can live a long and happy life and can also get along just fine with FIV- cats. #dontfearFIV #FIVispositivelyadoptable
