At your service, Apollo is just too proud to be homeless. We named him after Rocky's opponent in the movie because he has those chunky cheeks from tom cats wanting to go a couple of rounds with him. But we like to call him a lover, not a fighter, because he is beyond sweet and will run to us everytime he sees us just like a puppy dog.
He is in need of a forever home where he can stay inside full time. He loves to play with toy mice and fish, and is happiest when he can hang out in a cardboard box. We estimate him to be around three years old. He was diagnosed with FIV. This is different from Feline Leukemia which impacts mortality. FIV is only contagious through a deep bite. Apollo lives with another foster cat of ours, Tigger, who has not contracted FIV. Cats with FIV can live full lives with little or no health issues. Please don't let this deter you from bringing this sweet boy into your home. He and Tigger are best buds so adopting them together is an option.
This kitty is currently in a loving foster home and has been tested positive for FIV and negative for FELV, microchipped, has age appropriate vaccinations, and has been spayed/neutered.
Please put in an adoption application on our website, cats-can.org if you are interested or if you have any questions please email us at catscaninc@gmail.com
