Salvador is a beautiful snowshoe male with luminous light blue eyes. We don't know much about where Sal came from - he was found as a stray already neutered, so we assume he was someone's pet at one point. He enjoys petting sessions, lap naps, and meows for his foster mom's attention when he sees her for in the morning or when she comes home from work. He plays by batting toys around the floor and especially loves a catnip toy like the catnip filled banana. Sal also likes to be with his humans, preferring to be in the same room with them whenever possible and sleeps at the foot of his foster mom's bed. When Sal arrived at PAW, it was clear that he had a few medical issues. We discovered that his teeth and gums were in bad shape and likely causing him a lot of pain, and as a result, he required a number of extractions. Don't worry, not only is his mouth no longer hurting him, he's still eating his preferred food - dry kibble - without any issues. Sal was originally very anxious when he arrived at his foster mom's house, but after a few months, has settled right in. He is a good traveler, going to the weekend house with his foster mom nearly every week without fuss or anxiety, and does well in the new environment when he arrives. Sal does sometimes get annoyed and will let you know he's had enough by swatting with his paws or growling. For this reason, we recommend Sal be in a home without small children. Sal is getting along with the other cats and dog in the home, but he would probably prefer that his feline companions be on the chill side vs. playful. Salvador is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations and is microchipped. His has tested positive for FIV, but is negative for FElv. FIV+ status does not mean that Sal will not live a normal lifespan. Good resources for learning about FIV in cats can be found here: https://vbspca.com/what-you-should-know-when-adopting-an-fiv-positive-cat/ If you would like to meet Salvador via a Facetime or Zoom video call and learn more about him, please complete the application here: www.paw-rescue.org/adopt and we will be in touch. If you have any other questions, please contact Heather at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org Due to the COVID pandemic, we are doing meet and greets with our foster cats via Zoom, Facetime or other video conferencing platforms. Since the adopter won't be able to meet them in person, PAW is honoring a 2 week trial adoption to ensure it's a good fit.
