Sarge Domestic Short Hair Pittsburgh, PA

* Affectionate, mellow boy, currently healthy but FeLV+
* Needs to be the only cat, or with other FeLV+ cats; fine with dogs
* Needs loving, low-stress home

Introducing... Our Furry Man Cat Sarge! Now, despite his name, Sarge does not need to be in charge. In fact, he’s a no-drama llama-fur adult friend who is chill to the max and even lets us give him a bath! He's affectionate and mellow and just a lovely relaxed cuddly boy He gets along with everything and everyone, yes even the wild child papillon mix in his foster home -- and small & big children, too! Sarge is super low maintenance and can cuddle to the sounds of your favorite music or watch your favorite flicks with you.

One big thing you should know about Sarge is that he has FeLV, feline leukemia, and because of it, he should not be with other cats, unless they are also positive. Don't worry -- he is only contagious to other cats, not you, your dog or your kids. (Oh, and he also has FIV, too, but FeLV is the big whammy.) Have no fear, he's a happy healthy guy right now.

Sarge has been waiting for his forever home for awhile now, and we here at Pittsburgh CAT would love Sarge to find a Home for the Holidays. As a result, Sarge's adoption fee has been reduced to $50. Please share Sarge to help him find a forever home!

And, if you have a busy home with plenty of hands to pet him and would you give a great guy like Sarge a chance, contact Pittsburgh CAT and ask about him! He'd really love to meet you! https://docs.google.com/…/1FAIpQLScN-71O2iMuu_TEXz…/viewform

(FeLV, otherwise known as feline leukemia, is a virus that impairs the cat's immune system and can shorten their lives; FIV also impairs a cat's immune system. During the early stages of infection, cats often exhibit no symptoms and no signs of disease at all. Over time, however, the cat's health may deteriorate. We do not recommend that FeLV+ kitties live with FeLV- kitties. Cats infected with FeLV and FIV can live for years in relative good health, but their health should be vigorously monitored. Sarge will best thrive in a loving, low-key home where he's fed a high-quality diet, and checked regularly by a veterinarian supportive of maintaining and treating an FeLV+ cat. Controlling secondary infections and treating other illnesses as they arise is key, so Sarge will require a committed and loving adopter. In return, he will give much love and joy, and many snuggles and purrs!)

P.S. Sarge is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, and up-to-date on all of his vaccinations!
