Special Needs Cats

The cats listed on this page have special needs.  They could be scheduled for surgery, be senior catizens, be FIV+ or have dietary restrictions.  In many cases, these kitties are the most loving and appreciative of our shelter cats.  FIV is not a reason to reject a cat for adoption, please read on.  

Here are some links for more information about FIV and FeLV:

Note:  PBS does not take in Feline Leukemia Positive cats, but we try to help out those who have gone the extra mile to save these very special kitties.  These cats are being cared for in private homes and the phone number listed is a direct line to the caretaker.

The site below allows anyone to post FIV/FeLV/FIP positive kitties for adoption:  http://www.bemikitties.com/felv/cgi-bin/suite/classifieds/classifieds.cgi

Bootstrap Bill Needs You!!

Bootstrap Bill was found with an injured leg in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana.  The Shelter there couldn't afford to fix his leg so he was neutered and sent here.  Whenever he tried to walk on the ankle joint or when the leg was touched, it was painful to him.  Cold, wet weather seemed to bother his leg as well.  Our veterinarian's assessment was that over time, his leg would only have gotten worse unless the leg was amputated.  Thanks to your generous donations, we raised over $800.00 for his operation which will cost approximately $1,000.00.  We are happy to report that Bill recently underwent surgery to amputate his leg and is recovering nicely. He is feeling much better and back to his old playful self!
