Neither cheese nor flower, Cheese Or Flower is looking for a home where she can have fun and blossom! Cheese will chase laser beams all over the house, and a simple pipe cleaner is her favorite toy. Give her a pipe cleaner to play with, and she will keep herself busy with that little "critter!" She also has an electric mouse in her foster home that she can chase wildly around the house. She likes to stay busy!

Cheese is pretty autonomous; she can keep herself busy playing by herself (with you pointing the laser beam toy now and then for her!). She is a cautious girl and needs a patient human to play with her and let her relax and settle in. She's a pretty brown and white tabby with a curious nature and a thoughtful face, and we can't wait to watch her bloom over time.

And Cheese is cool as a cucumber! She's a pretty calm girl, and is at her best with people who are also calm. Her ideal home is with adults, young adults, and older kids. It is unknown if she has had experience around any cats or dogs, but we think being your only pet would likely suit her best.

Cheese Or Flower has tested positive for Feline Leukemia. FeLV is not a type of cancer. It's a virus that causes a weaker immune system and often a shorter life-span. For the most part, 'FeLVies' are just like any other cat. APA! waives the adoption fees of these cats, and provides FeLV-related treatment and support post-adoption. Cheese or Flower can only live with other FeLV+ cats, but dogs and other animals are just fine! Any questions? We'd love to talk with you about FeLV care.

All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
