Matisse, Willow Grove Area (FCID 09/01/2026-120)

Description

Meet Matisse (FeLV+) - Your Handsome Little House Panther! This sleek, shiny black bundle of cuteness is a total purr bug! At 1–2 years old, Matisse is a loving, laid-back boy who adores snuggling close to his foster mom. His gentle nature brings a sense of calm wherever he goes, but don't let that relaxed personality fool you — he has a playful side, too! One of Matisse's very favorite things is playtime with his fellow FeLV+ friends, Gauguin and Picasso. These 3 boys enjoy each other's company and would all love a home where they can feel safe, loved, and cherished. Matisse has tested positive for feline leukemia virus (FeLV). FeLV is a virus that affects a cat's immune system and can make them more susceptible to certain illnesses. Although there is currently no cure, many FeLV+ cats can enjoy a good quality of life with proper care, regular veterinary visits, and lots of love. FeLV is spread primarily through close contact between cats, therefore Matisse should live with other FeLV+ cats or as the only cat in the home. He has not been around dogs to our knowledge, but he may do well with a cat-friendly pup if introductions are slow and appropriate. This sweet boy deserves a loving home where he can snuggle, play, and enjoy life to the fullest. Please don't let his FeLV+ status overshadow the wonderful companion he can be!  Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/ . Thank you! (Foster: Rachel B.)
