Evangeline

Still Waiting… But Still Full of Love | Transport Available Nationwide<br/><br/>Hi… I’m Evangeline. I may not be the cat who runs up to everyone right away—but if you give me a chance, I’ll quietly become one of the most special parts of your life.<br/><br/>I spent the first couple years of my life surviving on the streets, doing everything I could just to make it through each day. A kind police officer eventually trapped me so I could finally be safe. When my foster mom first met me, she could see right away that I had been through a lot. I have scars on my neck from an old attack… little reminders of a life I’m so ready to leave behind.<br/><br/>But even with all of that, it didn’t take long for me to learn that not all humans are scary. Now when my foster mom comes in, I run to greet her. 🐾<br/><br/>I can be a little shy at first—but that’s only because I’ve learned to be careful. If you give me patience and kindness, I will open up in the most beautiful way. I love gentle pets, soft voices, and when I really trust you, I’ll give you my little nose bumps—my “Eskimo kisses”—to show you how much I care.<br/><br/>I’m happiest in a calm, peaceful home. I love lounging in sunny windows, watching birds, and quietly keeping you company. I don’t need chaos—I just need comfort, safety, and someone who understands me.<br/><br/>I would do best as the only cat, but I can live with calm, respectful dogs.<br/><br/>I am FIV positive, and because of that, I’m constantly overlooked… but I wish people knew that it doesn’t change the kind of companion I am. I don’t need expensive or special care—just routine vet visits, good food, fresh water, and a safe indoor home. With that, I can live a long, happy, completely normal life.<br/><br/>FIV Care Guide<br/><br/>FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) simply means my immune system needs a little extra support—but it doesn’t define me.<br/><br/>• I can safely live with other friendly cats if everyone gets along (it spreads mainly through deep bite wounds).<br/>• I do best as an indoor cat where I can stay safe and healthy.<br/>• Regular vet care and a low-stress home keep me thriving.<br/>• I can live a long, full, happy life—just like any other cat.<br/><br/>FIV Myths vs. Facts<br/><br/>• Myth: FIV+ cats don’t live long.<br/>Fact: Many live long, healthy lives.<br/><br/>• Myth: FIV spreads easily.<br/>Fact: It is not spread through sharing food bowls, grooming, or peaceful living.<br/><br/>• Myth: FIV+ cats are always sick.<br/>Fact: Most live normal, happy lives with routine care.<br/><br/>I’ve been through so much, and I’ve waited so long… but I still believe there’s someone out there who will see me, choose me, and love me for who I am. ❤️<br/><br/>Evangeline is fully vetted and ready to go.
