My story

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

 



Prepare to have your space invaded by Vada! This absolutely adorable teen kitten doesn't require a lot of fancy words from us to sell you on her, that is all handled by the simple act of being near her, so we recommend doing that! Found on a construction site shortly after the new year and appears to have recently given birth, but no kittens were found around the area. Vada would benefit from a home that can offer her plenty of enrichment and attention since she easily deserves it and likely has been lacking in those departments in her short time on this circular planet. She would likely do well on her own or by joining a home with other animals, but we haven't seen her directly interact with anything while in our care so just take any intros of that nature slowly.

Vada has tested positive for FIV before coming into our care, so we would recommend retesting again in the near future to be sure. Oh, and how did we almost forget...she's polydactyl! That's extra cat for the same low low price as a regular toebeaned cutie!

**FIV is specific to the feline species, and is not transmissible to dogs, humans, or any other animals. It is spread from cat to cat via mating or deep puncture bite wounds. Thankfully, all our cats are spayed or neutered so mating is no longer an option! Since FIV does not spread through casual contact like grooming, sneezing, and food/litter sharing, FIV+ cats can live with other cats that have tested negative as long as the cats get along without fighting.**
