Lily

Lily is estimated to be less than two years old. She was brought to ARF in May as a stray momma, along with her kittens. She has spent some time in one of our loving foster homes. This sweet petite starts off a little shy, but she is an affectionate, playful kitty. We think Lily will do best as the only cat in her new home. Lily has tested FIV+, but please do not allow that to deter you! FIV cannot be transferred to people or to dogs. It is typically transmitted between outdoor cats who are competing for limited resources and it is usually transmitted through deep bite wounds. It is not uncommon for the shelter to be caring at any given time for one or more FIV+ cats while they await forever homes and we have seen umpteen FIV+ cats successfully placed in forever adoptive homes. FIV+ cats can live a normal quality of life. Lily is available via adoption consultant due to her FIV status to ensure that her adopter is clear about what FIV is and so the adopter can ask any questions that they may have regarding it. Please email [email protected] for more information. The shelter is open Tuesdays through Fridays 3:30-6:30pm AND Saturdays & Sundays 1pm-4pm. No appointments are needed during those times. If you are not available during those times, special arrangements for a meet and greet may be able to be arranged by emailing [email protected]. Thank you for considering the adoption of a shelter animal in need!
