Xavier Domestic Short Hair Mix O'Fallon, MO

Xavier was rescued from a rural animal control after being surrendered by his owner because they had too many pets. Shortly thereafter, he became very ill and was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis). We immediately started him on life-saving treatment which is curative, but costly. After several months of treatment, we are pleased to say that he's fully cured and doing great! He's packed on some weight and has blossomed into a very big boy. He is on a reduced calorie, measured diet and could stand to lose a few pounds, but he's playful and energetic and that should help immensely. Xavier is a silly and goofy boy - he's very inquisitive and can sometimes get into mischief while checking things out. He's a sweet and friendly boy, but may be a bit shy at first until he gets to know you. He does pretty good with other cats, but can be obnoxiously playful at times and some cats find him to be annoying. He would do well with another playful, easy-going at who will wrestle with him but also put him in his place when he needs it. Xavier loves canned food and treats, catnip toys and perching on his cat trees watching the birds outside. He's fully vetted and ready for a forever home to call his own.
