THIS SUPER CUTIE IS A HAPPY, MELLOW, EASY-GOING YOUNG LOVE BUG!

Be sure to read our volunteers' comments about this wonderful boy and check out the photo of him warming a friend's lap.

Hello friends! My name is Buster. I am one undeniably cute, sweet and bright-eyed young man. Everyone who meets me walks away with a smile! I have a happy, relaxed, friendly disposition that I know you'll enjoy.

I came to King Street Cats from a hoarding situation with my friend Sammy. What a relief it was to join to the KSC family. It was immediately apparent to KSC that we were destined to be beloved family members with forever homes of our own. Sammy has already found his. Now it's my turn, and I can't wait. Let me tell you about myself. 

Like my friend Sammy, I am FIV+. Don't stop reading here, because I am "Positively Adoptable." Sammy proves this, as have many other KSC alumnae.  FIV stands for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus. It is *not* human HIV. Humans *cannot* catch FIV. Dogs *cannot* catch FIV.

It is spread from cat to cat by means of deep-puncture bite wounds - something that's not hard to imagine in a chaotic hoarding situation where cats have to struggle to get what they need to survive.

It means that at some point I may, or may not, develop a heightened susceptibility to the ailments that we all face regularly. 

This is the "extra" that I ask of you in order to keep me healthy:

• Feed me a healthy, high quality high protein/grain free (preferably wet food only, because this is so much healthier than dry food)
• Keep me indoors and away from combative cats
• Establish a relationship with a trusted veterinarian (who is enlightened about FIV).
• Bring me to my vet regularly and any time when you notice that I'm not feeling or acting like myself (this means getting to know me well enough to understand what "acting like myself" means)

That's it. Wait, what? Yes, that's it. You'd do that for any cat you brought into your family, so I know you'll be able to do it for me. 

​Now that we've got that out of the way... onto the best part: me! I am extremely cute with my perfectly proportioned little face and my bright green eyes! I'm a short haired, soft, silky little boy in snowy white with a silver cap and mask and a tiny soft nose to nudge you with when I want some love.

I'm friendly, gentle, loving and very mellow. My KSC friends love me and know that you will too. I adore my humans and I purrrrr happily when I get gentle pats on the head and someone softly tells me how wonderful and purrfect I am. What could be better? 

Here's what my volunteer friends are saying about me now that they've met me:

• "Positively handsome!"
• "Buster is adorable... he's such a love bug."
• "Such a sweet face."
• "A wonderful cat... Buster is a winner."
• "Buster is an awesome cat. So much love to give!"
• "Buster is such a sweet boy!"  

Please come to meet me and fall in love. I want to be your best friend and enjoy the quiet, mellow pleasures that life has to offer with you. I want to spend a lot of time by your side basking in your affection and attention. 

It's easy to get started: please send an email to contact@kingstreetcats.org and ask for me, Buster.

​My KSC friends can answer any questions you have about FIV.

I can't wait to meet you!

Adorably yours,
Buster
