Adopt Flanigan a Orange or Red Tabby Domestic Mediumhair (medium coat) cat in

Description:

DOB: March 3rd, 2019 Flanigan is an incredibly sweet and playful cat! He is extremely comfortable with people and warms up to strangers immediately accepting pets and asking them to play with him. It's clear from his personality he had a very caring home before he was given up as he is not shy around people and is incredibly affectionate. He loves to sit in your lap or join you in the bed, and loves head scratches. He may also follow you from room to room when he's curious about what you're doing, his foster likes to call him a "bathroom attendant". He is also very silly and loves to play! He will often roll over to show you his tummy as an invitation to give him a toy (he loves his stuffed rabbit) or string toy. He does like to use his teeth and nails when playing but he is not aggressive. Usually encouraging him to play with toys instead of your hands works well and keeping his nails trimmed helps. He will occasionally try to grab or bite your feet to try to get your attention but his foster is working on not encouraging this behaviour. Having regular play and lots of toys helps Flanigan get his energy out. He will greet you at the door when you come home and will meow at you to let you know he missed you. He is not usually super vocal except before meal times and does okay with being left alone during the day. Flanigan is very playful and sometimes when he gets very into playing he will hop straight up like a bunny. He also loves to knead and even knead the ground doing little stomps. He likes to use his paws a lot and will also reach for you occasionally when he wants your attention. He also really likes people food and you will need to be careful about leaving food out because he will try to take anything (even bread!).Flanigan was previously adopted and had a stable life but sadly was given up due to allergies.Flanigan requires prescription food due to his allergies and takes 1/2 pill of prednisone every 3 days which can be mixed with his wet food. He sadly cannot have treats so rewarding him with scritches or attention is a substitute. Flanigan is also FIV positive and will get a bit of discharge from his eyes (you don't need to clean it he does a very good job of cleaning himself). His condition makes him produce more dander and so anyone with cat allergies may have a harder time being around him. Note from Flanigan's foster family:Flanigan is such a sweet cat and it will be hard to say goodbye to him. He always brings a smile to people's faces either by sucking up to them or being extremely silly and being a typical "orange" cat. I'll miss him dearly but hope he will go to a good home. Flanigan has tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). FIV+ cats can live long happy lives with a good diet, low stress, indoor homes, loving families, and annual vet check-ins. They don't require medication and can live in a home with other non-FIV+ cats, as the virus is only passed to other cats by blood (i.e. deep bite marks) and can't be passed to dogs or humans. Please don't judge them based on a blood test!
