Often times, kitties with Feline Leukemia (FeLV) are overlooked by adopters because they don’t understand this diagnosis. We’re here to tell you that it’s not as scary as it sounds!
Simply put, FeLV weakens a cat’s immune system by attacking the white blood cells in their body. While this condition sometimes shortens a cat’s lifespan, that doesn’t mean they don’t deserve loving homes, too! With routine vet visits and lots of love, FeLV+ kitties can live happy, healthy lives. Many even live with other FeLV+ cats!
In our experience, FeLV+ cats have the sweetest dispositions. If you have room in your heart and home for an FeLV+ cat (or two), visit our Sam Swope Pet TLC (241 Steedly Drive) or East Campus (1000 Lyndon Lane) to meet the current FeLV+ kitties in our care.
