Hello, my name is Jensen. I am a gorgeous black and white boy. I am an absolute handsome guy and a great tuxie kitty cat! Although I may have my fancy tux on and look pretty happy, my life hasn’t been the easiest. When I was just a little bitty kitten, I was exposed to ringworm and had to be put into the medical department at the Humane Society of Pinellas. Due to there being many kittens in my community cage, we were all isolated. During this time some of us also got coccidia. So we were kept down in the medical department until all of us were well. It wasn’t until we were nearly 5 months old that we finally were able to come ‘up the hill’ for adoption. At this point, a litter of my cage mates came down with FIP. FIP is Feline Infectious Peritonitis. And you can read a bit more here: http://www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/brochures/fip.html as to what FIP is. Now all of us here in our cage, Lucky #13, are healthy and don’t show any signs of getting sick. But there is always the possibility that it could happen. With any cat or kitten, we can be carriers of FIP and live long healthy lives as the disease can lie dormant. Or we can begin to show signs of FIP and have to be put to rest. So as you can see, my life has been tough. The majority of the people that come to the shelter want teeny tiny little kittens and not ‘big’ kittens like me. But I have so much love to give, and just want a family that understands my circumstances and is willing to give me a chance. I love to play and I love to be petted. I am a really sweet big guy (big for my age that is,) and if you are looking for a tuxie to bring love into your life, then I’m your guy. Please come and meet me today, because I am ready to be yours!
