HONEY BADGER

My story

With an abundance of zest, curiosity, and a sprinkle of sass, Honey Badger the cat is nothing short of extraordinary. His playful spirit knows no bounds, wand toys are his absolute favorite and he’ll zip and zap after them at lightning speeds. He’s also a quick learner, currently mastering target training with the help of volunteers, picking up new commands faster than you can say “treat!”When he’s not darting around the room, this little dynamo loves winding between your legs and flopping down beside you, purring contentedly as if he’s claiming his spot as your loyal sidekick. And did someone say lap cat? Honey Badger is supremely snuggly, settling into your lap like he was born there. Catnip bubbles are another favorite and he chases them with pure joy, just don’t bring out steak-scented bubbles; those are a hard “nope” in his book!Upon arriving at LCAS, Honey Badger was diagnosed with FeLV. FeLV is not contagious to humans or dogs, though it can be transmitted between cats—meaning he’d thrive best in a home without other cats, or with fellow FeLV-positive kitties only, and enjoy life safely indoors. While the median survival time for FeLV is about 2.5 years post-diagnosis, many cats live longer and with excellent care and love, those years can be filled with joy!At just 2 years old, Honey Badger is still very much a kitten—full of energy, curiosity, and love to give. Despite the challenges his diagnosis brings, he absolutely deserves to spend his years in a loving home where he can continue to be playful, affectionate, and full of life.
