Pet of the Month: Meet Matt


Matt is a lovely young tiger tux who resides in our Special Needs Room. He’s quite shy initially but warms up to people quickly. Once he’s comfortable with you, all he wants is your attention. He loves to be by your side. When Matt first came to our shelter he was terrified of people. Nowadays Matt is the first cat to scamper down to the floor and wait quietly for pets when we walk into the room.
Matt would do best in a calm home as sudden movements still make him nervous. If you get down to his level and interact with him gently, you will be rewarded with his eager affection.
Matt enjoys spending time with his friends in the Special Needs room, so we could see him enjoying a home with another FIV+ cat companion. Cats with FIV can lead normal lives, both in quality and duration. They should be monitored closely for infections and dental issues. Like all cats, regular veterinary checkups and a high-quality diet are recommended to ensure that Matt remains happy and healthy.
Matt will be waiting patiently for his forever family to come and take him home.
