Grayson's Story

Meet Grayson! Grayson came to Heartland with 5 others from one of our partners in Chicago. He might not be right at the front of the cage waiting for pets, but he is an observer at first and once comfortable, will come out. <br/><br/>Grayson is the kind of cat who truly bonds with his person. He may start in the back of his space, but as soon as you offer a quiet word or a gentle hand, you'll see his brave side emerge. He's looking for a patient soul who understands that the best things in life-like a purr from a shy cat-are earned.<br/><br/>Grayson is neutered, up-to-date on FVRCP and Rabies vaccinations, and is FIV and FeLV negative.*<br/><br/>Grayson is currently staying in a lovely foster home. Email cats@heartlandanimalshelter.org to set up a time to meet him!<br/><br/>*TreeFrog, a cat that previously lived and free-roamed with this cat, has tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). Because this cat had close contact with TreeFrog - including sharing water dishes and free-roaming together - they are considered FeLV exposed for a 60-day period. FeLV can be transmitted through close contact, such as bite wounds, mutual grooming, and shared food or water bowls and litter boxes. FeLV has an incubation period of up to 60 days, during which a cat may test negative on SNAP antigen tests despite being infected. Due to this exposure, we recommend retesting 60 days after the last possible exposure date (after April 6, 2026). One FeLV SNAP antigen test and one FeLV quantitative PCR test would be performed at no charge to the adopter.<br/><br/>For more information on FeLV - https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951934
