Notes from Kneading Kitty's Rescue

Aging is like a garage sale, some stuff looks old. Some stuff doesn't work and other stuff you can't even identify. I'm a cat, I'm old and so far everything still works even though I'm FIV+. I'm a tired grumpy old man. I need a home to live out my days grumbling about how good it used to be. A lazy boy in the sunshine to take long naps. In true old man style I know what I like my food wet and churru treats. I like to be brushed until I don't. I need to be the only cat in a quiet home. Looking for the other half to become an odd couple with. Butters (aka Bubba) is up to date on vaccines including rabies, dewormed, neutered and microchipped. Butters is FIV-positive***, and can safely live and play with cats who don’t have FIV. His adoption fee is $80.

***IMPORTANT INFORMATION*** This kitty lives with FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus), which is a common, slow-acting virus that weakens the immune system over time. FIV is contracted through deep bite wounds from another cat infected with FIV. Cats with FIV live long, happy lives with few restrictions and often do not need special diet or medicine. Learn more about FIV at the Cornell Feline Health Center: www.vet.cornell.edu
