Story
Hi. My name is Chesney. I’m three years old, but I look and play like a little kitten. If you have any toys - I’m all in! I love cheek rubs, wet food, and all my cat friends here at the shelter. The shelter is the first place I felt safe. Before I got here, I lived in a home that was… well, not good. There were a lot, - I mean a lot of cats, and we didn’t get enough positive human interaction, so we never learned to trust. When I first got to LAS I was terrified. If a person even looked at me, I ran away. It was wet food and toys that taught me that people can be kind to me. And slowly I learned to trust some of the people at the shelter. In fact, now they can pet me and I love it. I love them. When I think about getting adopted, I know that I’ll need: 1) another cat in the home, 2) a quieter environment, and 3) people who are experienced with cats like me. Despite making amazing gains with people here, moving to a new place will be traumatic, so my new family will have to know that it will take me a good while to recover. So, that’s me emotionally. Physically, I have something called *FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus). That means I have a reduced immune system. My health issues sometimes scare people away. Being POS-FIV, my adopters will just have to take super great care of me, like having nutritious food and 2X year vet visits. FIV positive cats can live long lives with a bit of extra care. I hope you are the person that will give me a forever home. Please come to LAS and talk to the staff about adopting me. I’ll be in the Teal adoption room waiting for you! *LAS routinely checks for FIV, as it is a common virus found in cats living outdoors. All of the cats in the Teal adoption room have tested positive for FIV. You cannot catch FIV, and you can’t spread it. It is only transmitted by blood from one feline to another. Please come visit our FIV cats, they are some of the friendliest cats we have at the shelter.

Story
Hi. My name is Dionne. I’m a 7 month old kitten. Before I came to the shelter I lived outside, which was very scary, especially as it got colder out. I was found in someone’s yard and they brought me to Lakeland Animal Shelter; A.warm bed, a full belly, ahh it’s amazing! I get along great with other cats, and would like them in my new home - but I’m sensitive and would need to live with kind cats that would never bully me. I’d like my new home to be a bit quieter, with people who know cats very well, and know that I need a very, very slow approach to teach me to trust. So, please only teens/adults in the home. I like pets - especially on my face and head. Just please don’t betray me and try to pick me up - that would be horrible and oh so scary! If you are the right family for me, please come to the Purple adoption room. Oh, I love to play and boxes are the best! Do you have toys and boxes? Ooo, I hope. Hope to see you soon, Love, Dionne

Story
Frankly, Muffin, a beautiful seven year old calico cat, may live out her life at the shelter. She came from a home that had way too many cats, and Muffin never received enough positive human interaction to learn to trust people. Right now, Muffin likes to be near people- but doesn’t allow people to touch her for more than a few seconds- and will often glare at anyone who does. She’s not a mean cat, but she is a scared cat- and when she is adopted, her adopters must also promise that they will take a very, very slow approach to win over her trust, even if it takes many months to do so. We can’t undo her past, but we hope someone will come give her a brighter future. Muffin would do best in a quieter household with a cat friend or two to help her feel more confident and comfortable while she adjusts to her new home- and living with a friendlier cat might even help her become friendly! Please give this scared baby a chance.
