My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Payne, the enchanting two-year-old black cat with a heart of gold! Despite his diagnosis of Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV+), Payne's sweet and affectionate nature knows no bounds. This gentle soul adores nothing more than snuggling up close and showering his human companions with love and warmth. With his sleek ebony fur and soulful eyes, Payne captivates everyone he meets with his undeniable charm. While he may face some unique health challenges, Payne's resilient spirit and unwavering affection make him a truly special companion for anyone willing to open their heart and home to him.
