About This Cat
What WeRescue Scout knows about DARWIN
This friendly orange tabby needs an experienced, committed adopter who can manage complex ongoing medical care including dental extractions, eye monitoring, and FIV management in an indoor-only home. An adopter comfortable with veterinary appointments, medication, and adaptations for a functionally blind cat—and ideally knowledgeable about FIV—would give him the best chance.
- Functionally blind; requires indoor-only home and careful environmental adaptation
- FIV positive; must be kept indoors away from other cats to prevent transmission
- Chronic gingivostomatitis requiring dental extractions and possible ongoing medical management
- Requires close ophthalmology monitoring for progressive eye disease
- Not suitable for homes with outdoor access or other cats
