My story

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

If you absolutely, positively need a lap cat and a kitty who loves attention, Tiger is your girl. She can get a little too needy at times but it beats being ignored! Tiger is also acrobatic and does very interesting headstands and somersaults, flipping herself against foster mom's leg and showing off the spots on her belly. Just how cute is that? She would do best in a home where people are around often since she really doesn't like being alone. Tiger is FIV+. Check out her videos! https://youtu.be/3cU2SOmZqMc

About FIV
FIV is a cat-only virus and does not affect people or dogs. FIV+ cats most often live long, healthy, and relatively normal lives with no symptoms at all. FIV is not easily passed between cats. If you are looking to add an FIV+ cat to your family and you currently have cats that are not FIV+ please speak with your vet.

If you're ready to adopt now and want to learn more about, meet, or adopt this pet, you can start the process in one of two ways:

Come on in during open adoption hours Tuesday - Saturday 12:30-3:00! For in-shelter pets (not in foster care) coming in ASAP is the fastest way to adopt.
