URGENT! STUCK IN CAGE!!Checkers needs a foster! Domestic Short Hair Mix Bloomfield, NJ

Hello, this sweet boy needs a home, or even a foster home urgently!

This sweet little man was rescued from the streets of Newark.
We are trying very hard to get him into a foster home to get him out of a cage!
Since he has FELV, he can only be with other FELV positive kitties or dogs (however, we don't know how he would do with a dog, he may like them! Never know!) he is very sweet and craves attention.


FELV is not a death sentence. We have had many kitties go on to live many years.
Here is a bit of info on it if you are not familiar.

He is not sick, nor showing any symptoms and can be that way for many years!
A good diet of no by product foods and maybe simple supplement is all he needs!

Note from foster, Ashlynn:

Chessy is a really sweet and friendly cat! He's good with strangers, and even better with strangers who give him food. He is also the smartest cat I've ever fostered, and so far has learned to sit and spin on command. He likes to lay down and nap near or on you, or look out the window. Chessy also loves his playtime! He's quite good at playing, too, probably because he had to hunt for his own food in the wild. I hope Chessy goes to a good home because he really deserves it.

A note from

Hey! I'm !

My full time job is being adorable! Just look at me! What else am I qualified for??
My part time job is warming up laps. I LOOVE LAPS! I would make a wonderful companion. I'm fine with cats, but I'm also ok with being your one and only.

I was found in Newark, NJ. Someone most likely left me behind because they didn't appreciate me. It happens..anyhoo......I am way too much of a sweet boy to live on the street. I am very grateful and happy my foster mom picked me up, rescued me from a sad life and brought me to a warm, loving home until I could find my forever home. I am content and no longer hungry now. I love my food! I get to eat everyday now!

He is up to date on shots, neutered, and tested positive FELV
Very healthy guy otherwise!
