black cat and tabby cat

Shelter arrival date:  04/06/2023

Name:  Carter
Gender: Neutered Male
Size/Weight:  Large.
Age: 4 years old

Medical info: FIV+, cloudy right eye

ID#: 643709

Name:  Rachel
Gender: Spayed Female
Size/Weight:  Large.
Age: 4 years old

Medical info: FIV+, missing left eye

ID#: 643710

Eligible for Rescue: Now 

Specifics:  Rachel and Carter were surrendered to the shelter because (like most cats) they didn't like the dogs that lived in the home - especially the new puppy. Both cats were stressed in the situation. Carter stayed hidden and Rachel started acting out towards the puppy. Not everyone enjoys a rambunctious puppy so we can't blame them. The previous owner said that Carter is prone to bladder stones, but we can't confirm a diagnosis. Rachel is missing an eye, Carter has a cloudy eye, and they both tested FIV positive. These two babies are looking for a home where they will be loved  and made to feel comfortable. They want to be a priority in someone's life, not disposable Both are waiting for their hero(s)  in cage 604
