HISTORY: AVALON was brought to F&F as a stray, and found to be FIV+. However, as is typical with many FIV+ cats, this cat has no symptoms, is in excellent health and expected to live a normal lifespan. While conventional thinking is to only place an FIV+ cat in a home with no other cats or with another FIV+ cat, there are many "mixed households." According to Cornell University, the primary mode of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) transmission is through repeated fights resulting in the exchange of blood, and it poses no threat to humans or other species. If you would like to consider AVALON for adoption but need more information on FIV, educational materials can be requested by emailing

TEMPERAMENT: AVALON is a gentle, sweet girl with a soft meow, an adorable white moustache, and four perfect white toe socks. She becomes a loving cuddle bug once she feels safe, and can be won over with Churu, chin scritches, and belly rubs. She has beautiful long hair and enjoys being brushed, which helps keep her coat mat-free. AVALON does best in a home with other cats and would enjoy having friendly kitty companions. AVALON would do well in a calm home where she can feel secure, build trust, and form a lifelong bond with her new family.
