About This Cat
What WeRescue Scout knows about Onyx Nightshade
Onyx is a shy but playful young cat who thrives with gentle, patient companionship. He’s happiest in a quiet home with other cats he can play with, and he’s doing well with proper care despite being FIV-positive.
- FIV-positive – requires regular vet checkups and should only be housed with other FIV-negative cats if properly managed
- Shy with people – needs a patient, low-pressure environment to build trust

About Onyx Nightshade
Saving One Life
RescueSaving One Life is a 501(c)3 non-profit, volunteer run, animal rescue that focuses almost completely on the animals that would have been otherwise euthanized at the pound or humane society. Our motto is that although we can't save the world, it makes a world of difference to the ones we do save. We specialize in purebred cats, feral kittens, and severe medical cases when we have funding to do so. We very rarely take owner surrender animals.
We are a no kill group and we only euthanize animals for medical issues that cannot be fixed with veterinary care (fatal illnesses, extreme prolonged suffering). We provide hospice care for animals in our care with terminal illnesses.
All of our animals are cared for in foster homes until they are able to go up for adoption. We may occasionally have animals in foster homes as long as four years (the running record so far) until they are adopted â once an animal is in our rescue, we will do everything feasible to care for that animal. Our foster animals live as a âpart of the familyâ until they are able to be put up for adoption. If we can, we will test them with cats, dogs, and children depending on who lives in the home. Not all cats get tested with kids or dogs if they are not available.
As a result of this, we really care where and how our animals are placed. We want the best possible situation for our animals AND the adoptive family. We reserve the right to deny any adoption.
