Holmes

* Friendly & affectionate * Fine with dogs, FeLV+ cats, & kids Isn't Holmes handsome? This sweetie was trapped in a Trap-Neuter-Return project in a local neighborhood. We discovered that he was as friendly as can be! Holmes loves people! He likes to rub on your legs and is thrilled with lots of pets and ear scratches! He also is a huge fan of scratching pads, temptation treats and his wet food. Holmes is amazed by the things he can watch outside of the window although loud noises tend to startle him a bit. (He is also weirded out by ceiling fans!!) Unfortunately, due to his time in the neighborhood, Holmes contracted feline leukemia. He has been 100% healthy during his stint in foster. Holmes can be a bit choosy about his feline companions but with slow introductions he likes other cats. He also doesn't mind his foster dog brother and should be fine with kids, since he loves all people! (FeLV, otherwise known as feline leukemia, is a virus that impairs the cat's immune system and can shorten their lives. During the early stages of infection, cats often exhibit no symptoms and no signs of disease at all. Over time, however, the cat's health may deteriorate. We do not recommend that FeLV+ kitties live with FeLV- kitties. Cats infected with FeLV can live for years in relative good health, but their health should be vigorously monitored. Holmes will best thrive in a loving, low-key home where he's fed a high-quality diet and checked regularly by a veterinarian supportive of maintaining and treating an FeLV+ cat. Controlling secondary infections and treating other illnesses as they arise is key, so Holmes will require a committed and loving adopter. In return, he will give much love and joy!) Holmes is a very nice cat who would love to settle in with a wonderful adopter. He is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, tested for FIV, and up-to-date on all of his vaccinations.
