Special Needs Kitty – In Need Of Good Home

Trina is one of the sweetest most loving cats that you will ever have the pleasure of meeting.  She has an interesting story.   She was found at Saint Elizabeth’s Hospital in Washington, DC.  She was surviving on french fries and other food that strangers kindly gave her.

Some good Samaritans took her in and brought her to NOVA Cat in hopes of adopting her.  She does have a microchip, but when we called the owner, they did not want her back.  When we tested her for Feline Leukemia/FIV, she tested positive for Feline Leukemia. This is a virus that is in the same family of viruses as HIV.

The virus does not affect humans, but can be transmitted to other cats.  Our good Samaritans had other cats and were not able to take her with them.  The virus is more lethal in cats under the age of one.  I have seen older cats do well for much longer periods of time.

Trina does well with all people. We currently have her separated from other cats.  She would do best as the only cat in a household or a household that has other Feline Leukemia positive cats.

Please feel free to email or call us for more information.
