Boots Cats Who Crochet? Boots has been watching crochet tutorials. He wants to add value to the therapeutic benefits he will bring to his new family. (This cat is loving, funny and yes, a bit goofy.) Handsome huggable Boots' goal is to learn the cat stitch (or help you unravel it) in his forever home. There is a little snag though - even though Boots has been with his original rescue since he was a kitten and was fully vaccinated...somehow, somewhere - Boots caught Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (FVR) "feline herpes". So when Boots is too stressed, he will have a flare-up that needs medication. Do not worry, cats with herpes can have a completely normal life. The virus is not contagious to humans. He just needs low-stress - so think of feline herpes carriers as a living stress-o-meter. Boots gets along well with other cats (even if they are not into arts and crafts) but he would be contagious if he has a flare-up. (We do not want anyone else affected by this virus.) So, Boots is best for a home as the sole kitty - or as a buddy to another cat affected by feline herpes. It is easy to get hooked on super-playful & silly Boots. He is ready to leave his hammock and his bachelor pad at the shelter and get wrapped up in a crochet blanket with his new family!  

All PAWS cats and dogs are current on the vaccinations appropriate for their age. Those who are confirmed over 4 months old or older will have their rabies vaccinations. Age permitting, dogs/puppies are tested for heartworm disease. Cats/kittens are tested (and are negative) for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). All are treated with flea/tick prevention and given internal parasite preventative on a regular basis. All are microchipped (for their safety and the adopter's peace of mind) as part of the adoption fee.
