Notes from Colony Cats (& dogs)
DOB: 2019
Meet Xerxes!
Xerxes is a sweet, shy boy who takes a little time to come out of his shell, but with patience and love, you’ll discover a gentle companion who enjoys pets… especially head scratches!
Though he’s toothless, don’t let that fool you! Xerxes has an excellent appetite and never misses a meal. He would thrive in a calm, quiet home with minimal commotion, where he can settle in at his own pace.
Could you be the one to give this handsome boy the peaceful forever home he’s been waiting for?
Feline Immunodeficiency Virus positive cats can live normal lives both in quality and duration. They do take special care in terms of monitoring them for signs of infection. FIV can be passed from cat to cat via deep bite wounds, but not from casual contact so positive cats can live with negative cats without the fear of spreading FIV as long as they get along and are spayed/neutered. For more information about FIV – feline immunodeficiency virus visit this website: https://bestfriends.org/resources/fiv-cats-faqs-feline-immunodeficiency-virus
**This cat is currently in a foster home and arrangements can be made for a meeting once you have applied with us. All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process. Due to the large number of inquiries received, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.**
