Looking for a forever home for Void - FLV+ senior cat, 11 years old, full of love (Phoenix, AZ area)
On Friday the 13th, September 2024, under a waxing gibbous moon, this little blessing came into my life.
I was at a dark time, feeling so lonely, and I prayed for a companion. About a month later, Void just strolled right through my front door. He was sick, skinny, and dirty. The vet found fleas, parasites, and Feline Leukemia Virus, and told me not to expect him to live as long as another cat. He's since been diagnosed with IBS too.
And yet -- I'm amazed at how well he's doing for an FLV cat. I want to believe he's just a carrier, because honestly I barely notice any symptoms.
He's 11 years old. He loves napping, playing with shoelaces, staring at birds through the window, and begging for treats. Treats, treats, treats. He just can't get enough.
I love this little guy with all my heart, and that's exactly why it breaks my heart to admit this: he deserves a stable, loving home. I'm moving internationally and I'm not sure what the future holds for me -- but I know Void needs stability more than he needs to follow me into the unknown. A 6 month stay in Mexico already showed me that international travel just isn't his thing.
I'm hoping to place him in a home with no other cats, or in an FLV-cats-only household, with tons of love. I'm willing to travel to bring him to the right home, and I'll cover food, medicine, and vet bills for a full year.
If you think you might be Void's person, please reach out.!
