Kodama

My story

  We're absolutely giddy and giggly about this Ghibli princess, Kodama! Her loving and affectionately curious demeanor is bound to tilt luck in your favor for your remaining days. Kodama was found as a stray back in June, which is when her original caretakers took her into a vet for treatment and care. It was there where she first tested positive for FeLV and was diagnosed with a ruptured ear drum, which she is still being treated for with PAWS. She is due for additional rechecks at the end of July, which could include a flushing out of her ears. Super sweet and cuddly, Kodama loves making new human friends and doesn't seem to have any mobility issues with her currently skewed perspective, so all she'll need at home from you is all of the love and affection you can spare. She should also be retested for FeLV in a few months, so until then she should be the only cat in her home.   **Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) is a virus that is specific to cats that weakens a cat’s immune system. Cats with FeLV can live normal, happy, healthy lives—but with a shorter life expectancy than cats without FeLV. At PAWS, we believe every pet deserves to live out their life in a loving home for whatever time they have. We hope you'll consider opening your home to this special kitty!
