Phineas

Phineas (“Phin”) is an adorable 1-year-old tabby offering the total package to his forever family: affection, playfulness, and irresistible charm.<br/><br/>A true social butterfly, Phin loves everyone he meets and is genuinely thrilled when new guests stop by. He’s a shameless ham who lives to soak up attention and thrives on companionship. Phin wants his people nearby and would do best in a home that’s a bit on the busier side, as he doesn’t love being alone all day. He absolutely adores affection — sleeping on the bed for at least a few hours each night and starting every morning with the sweetest little cuddle routine.<br/><br/>In the evenings, Phin’s zoomies kick in and he dashes happily around the house. A feline friend around his age (or younger) would likely be a wonderful match, giving him a buddy to wrestle, chase, and burn off that kitten energy with.<br/><br/>Phin is FIV+, and it’s important to know that FIV-positive and FIV-negative cats can safely live together. FIV is transmitted only through deep bite wounds — not through grooming, sharing bowls, or normal play — so in a stable, friendly home, the risk to other cats is minimal. FIV+ cats can live long, full, happy lives with a normal lifespan, and Phin is no exception.<br/><br/>He also has Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease, so his litter box habits should be monitored daily. He’ll need a committed adopter who stays attentive to his urinary health, but with proper care and consistency, many cats with FLUTD do very well.<br/><br/>A sweetheart through and through, Phineas is ready to devote himself completely to his forever family and fill their home with endless snuggles, entertainment, and love.<br/><br/>Interested in adopting Phineas?
