Mou

Mou is a complete sweetheart who gets along with everybody! His favorite activity is definitely hanging out on the couch or bed and cuddling with a human. He loves belly rubs more than anything else and always sleeps on his side waiting for someone to sneak up and give him some. When he is feeling extra loving he will crawl right into your lap and ask for a head massage. Sometimes Mou needs a little push of confidence to try new things, but he is a very trusting cat after making his acquaintance. He is alright with being held or carried for a bit but after a minute or so he’ll be ready to get back on solid earth. He also loves playing with his favorite toys and goes crazy for a little catnip, too :) Meal time is definitely exciting for Mou and he loves getting the occasional treat throughout the day as well. Mou loves everyone he meets and takes no time at all feeling totally comfortable in a new home. He seems to have no problem with intermittent noise like dishwashers and laundry, but he might be more comfortable in a generally quieter home. Mou would be a great cat for a less experienced owner or someone who is looking for an easygoing, affectionate kitty. He is just fine being the only kitty, so if you're looking for a single kitty, Mou would be perfect! He promises to give you endless amounts of love and loyalty (and lap cuddles) if you choose him! Mou is also FIV+ (see below), which isn't a big deal; he will just need a good, healthy diet and to stay inside so that he's not exposed to illnesses. Fiv+ kitties can live with cats that are negative as long as there is no aggression. *FIV, or Feline Immunodeficiency Virus, is transmitted through a deep bite or in utero. It is typically seen in cats that have spent a great deal of time outdoors (like Mou) where the likelihood of altercation with other male cats is high. Cats with this condition can lead long, normal lives, but it is important to keep them indoors and healthy. FIV leads to increased susceptibility to infections and other diseases; if the cat is fed a high quality diet and kept free from parasites and other dangers, then the quality and length of life is excellent. Mou is not on any medications. Interested in adopting?
