Meet Mr. Louie and his sweet girl, Lucy.
This sweet guy is actually quite a gentleman and has helped a scared little female tabby (Lucy) learn to be brave. He has been her protector and her friend. Louie LOVES laying on his back and showing his belly, he doesn't even mind belly rubs. He can be found lounging or hanging out with Lucy or his human. Louie also loves dinner time and treats! Give them a chance and you will have faithful companions!!
Louie has tested positive for FIV. Because of their special bond we would hope he can go home with his special female companion Lucy. Louie does NOT do well with dogs. Louie does not actually do well with any other cats except Lucy!
Lucy is special as she doesn't mind being in the same room as humans, even sleeping at the foot of the bed or watching TV with humans, she just doesn't like the touch from the humans. Louie makes up for it with all of his affection. This is a pair that will be bring joy to your home as they can be quite entertaining as they play together and lounge together. Lucy will chirp for Louie if he gets to far out of her sight.
Cats with FIV often have similar life spans to cats without it. Studies conducted in 2010 and 2022 found that an FIV diagnosis wasn't associated with decreased lifespans. In fact, cats can remain asymptomatic for years or even their entire lives! Although FIV isn't easily transmitted between cats (only through deep bites and not via sharing food and other normal interaction), the risk means that an FIV positive cat may do best going into a single-cat household or a household with other FIV positive cats.

Adoption Fee: $ 75.00
TARA's adoption fee includes: spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchip, FIV/FeLV test, and deworming. A two-week trial is included as part of the adoption.
Because we do not know the background of many of our cats, we cannot guarantee exact age or breed.
Adoption centers may not have a volunteer present to open the cat enclosures, and we have foster homes located throughout the KC metro area. Please fill out an application if you'd like to meet this cat.
Interested in this pet? Please fill out a non-binding application. Our goal is to find life-long matches between animals and families, and the application provides us with a lot of information to help us help you find that match!
