Opal

My story

Ideal Home: Cool, Calm and Collected with another feline friend 🐾Qualities: Affectionate, Mellow, SnugglyWe have a very special girl ready for her adoption debut! Opal is a 5-year-old FIV+ long hair silver beauty who just might be the sweetest girl we've ever met. Opal enjoys spending her days on a good lap with her trusted person and simply can't get enough of being close and knowing how loved they are by her. Brushing is a relaxing pastime to share together, along with a nice afternoon snooze in the warm sun beams. Like her name, Opal is full of love and hope, laying the groundwork to ensure your balance of emotions and well being. She will need her time to settle in and substitute her shy demeanor with her blossoming affectionate one. She would benefit from another friendly feline to continue her growth and prosperity. She adores her best friend Captain whom she relies on for comfort, support, and the occasional kitty bath, and thinks it would be the cat's meow for them to go home together for all their ten lives! You may notice something extra special about Opal in that she is always lovingly winking at you. This is just an added charm to this wonderful girl who is ready for her forever home. If you could be her match, she hopes you will fill out an application today!Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a cat-specific virus that cannot be passed onto dogs or humans. FIV is spread through deep bite wounds, typically seen on outdoor male cats who have not been neutered. It's rarely spread through grooming, sharing bowls, or litter boxes. FIV affects a cat's immune system, but most cats live long lives when they live indoors, receive routine veterinary care, have a stress-free home, and a good diet. To learn more about FIV, please visit the link below. https://www.alleycat.org/resources/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv/______________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives! Apply here:  https://tenlivescatrescue.org/adoptionapp/Please Note:If the cat or kitten is no longer listed in the drop-down menu of the application then they are no longer available for adoption and we are not accepting applications. Due to limited volunteer power, applications submitted for cats or kittens no longer available will not be reviewed. About Ten Lives:Ten Lives Cat Rescue is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization located in Rhode Island. Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat. Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience! All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped. These services are inclusive of the adoption fee.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Opal, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
