Update: ALL CATS HAVE been adopted!

Their story

This crew had a rough start to life. After losing both of their moms unexpectedly, several weeks later we learned that all six kittens were born with FeLV, or Feline Leukemia Virus.

Our understanding of feline viruses like FeLV has changed significantly over the last few years. Now we know that FeLV+ cats can live happy healthy lives for much longer than is commonly understood. Recent studies indicate the median lifespan for a healthy FeLV+ cat can be six years and that FeLV is far less contagious than previously thought.

Thanks to your help, we were able to find loving homes for them all!
