Dusty's Story

The first thing to know about Dusty is that he is the most affectionate, gentle guy, locked and loaded with an unlimited supply of head bumps supported by a solid, comforting purr. Second to that is that he has feline leukemia (FeLV), but he doesn’t know it, and we’re not telling him! Dusty strayed into the right place at the right time. A friendly fellow from the outset, he was scooped up immediately and vetted the following day. Estimated to be about 4 years old, he is neutered, vaccinated for rabies and FVRCP, microchipped, and parasite-free. His FeLV+ status does not make Dusty”special needs.” It only means that his lifespan might be shortened, and that he should not live with non-FeLV kitties, unless they have received full rounds of the FeLV vaccine. Though highly transmissible between cats, FeLV cannot pass to dogs. Dusty requires an exclusively indoor lifestyle.

The American Street Cat, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

We engage in e-mail or phone correspondence and review an adoption application prior to arranging any meetings. Applications can be requested via e-mail.
