About Mr Jenkins

Domestic Cat
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

Meet Mr Jenkins, a 12YO gentleman who has decided that life is best taken lazily, and enjoyed from the comfort of a cozy spot. Mr. Jenkins is a friendly, easygoing guy who enjoys being petted and isn't interested in making a fuss about much of anything. He's pretty laid back and would much rather lounge somewhere comfortable than go looking for trouble. Basically, he's ready to be someone's sweet senior couch companion. He came to us as a stray and could use a little TLC to get him feeling his best. He has some skin irritation and hair loss that we're treating, and he has some dental wear and tear that will need continued attention. He also has an old injury to his right ear that left it scarred, giving him a little extra character, and almost making him look like he's missing an ear. Our vet team also recently discoveref that he is FIV positive. FIV (short for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) is a bloodborne virus that is spread by the bite of an infected cat to another, and it weakens the cat's immune system over time. Cats with FIV can live very long and happy lives, so long as they have access to regular veterinary visits, a healthy diet, and stress protection. FIV is not transmittable through casual contact such as sharing water bowls or mutual grooming, meaning FIV+ cats are able to live with other non positive cats so long as they have a stable social structure. FIV can seem really scary, but it shouldn't stop you from taking home a wonderful cat in need! None of this changes the fact that he's such a good boy who is ready to retire in peace and comfort. Mr. Jenkins isn't asking for much - just a cozy bed, a little love, and someone who can continue getting him the mlove and medical care he needs!
