Why I need a new home

My story

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


Geralt (of Rivia) was a failed foster during COVID. We took him in when the shelters were put on lockdown, and fell in love. He is incredibly friendly, and wants nothing more than to lay in your lap and snuggle. He can be quite chatty, but usually because he wants food or love. Super patient with our two very young children and gets along well with our dog. He is FIV+, which means he cannot be around other cats unless they are also FIV+. For this reason, we do not know if he gets along with other cats, but was previously a stray with the scars to prove it so I think he would be very defensive. The primary risk for an FIV+ cat is a condition called stomatosis (inflammation of the gums), but he is safe from this concern as he has had all of his teeth extracted. No meds needed. He can eat kibble still, and we can provide an automatic feeder so that he can have little meals throughout the day. He is litterbox trained. We are rehoming only because we are moving and cannot take him with us.
