When you’re a 12-year-old kitty in a shelter and it’s kitten season, the adoption deck is definitely stacked against you. Poor Marlow has found herself in this exact situation and here she sits. In all reality, she’s probably the coolest cat in the cat room! Marlow is a very quiet, calm and loving kitty. She’s got no bite, scratch, or hiss in her and enjoys cheek scratches, back rubs, and head butts.
If you work all day, Marlow won’t mind holding down the fort for you. She’ll even come running to greet you when you return! Tell her about your day, your successes, and your failures – she’s all ears. Marlow is FELV + but with two slight positive tests, 30 days apart, and no apparent symptoms means, she is most likely a latent carrier and not actually sick. Of course she would need to be the only cat in the home (unless you have another FELV kitty) but could lead a FULL indoor kitty life and provide you with years and years of awesomeness!
For more information about Marlow, call the Santa Cruz SPCA at 465-5000, or visit www.spcasc.org. The SCSPCA main shelter is located at 2685 Chanticleer Avenue in Santa Cruz. We also have the SCSPCA Mall Adoption Center and Gift Shop located in the Capitola Mall near Target open Wed-Fri from 11am-5pm and Sat-Sun 11am-4pm.
