Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
This handsome tabby loves to spend time with you - when his foster gets home, he gets extra talkative and sweet because he's just so happy to see them! He doesn't initiate cuddles that much but he does like it when you do. Adorably, his meow accompanies most things that are going on - when there's food, when he's excited to see you, and every time he jumps!
Mud Spelled Backwards is a bit of a goober - he loves to sleep with his legs in the air, he'll want to be next to you pretty much no matter what you're doing and make biscuits, and his tomcat cheeks give him a cute squishy face. What else could you need?
Mud Spelled Backwards has tested positive for Feline Leukemia. FeLV is not a type of cancer. It's a virus that causes a weaker immune system and often a shorter life-span. For the most part, 'FeLVies' are just like any other cat. APA! waives the adoption fees of these cats, and provides FeLV-related treatment and support post-adoption. He can only live with other FeLV+ cats and while FeLV is not transmissible to other animals, this sweet boy is fearful of dogs. Any questions? We'd love to talk with you about FeLV care.
All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
For further information or to meet Mud Spelled Backwards, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.
