Velcro
FeLV and FIV+ Gender: Male Approximate age: 2 years old (as of 2025) Arrived From: Charlotte, North Carolina Arrival Day: July 23, 2025
Outside the Cheesecake Factory at a busy mall in Charlotte, NC, life was carrying on as usual, until a little cat made a bold move that changed everything. Out of nowhere, he leapt onto a woman’s shoulder. The shoulders of a woman who was incredibly experience in cat rescue! Startled but touched, the woman realized this wasn’t just any stray. This was a cat with purpose… and serious charm. She knew right away this little guy needed help — and fast. She scooped him up and made arrangments to get him into the vet. That’s when she got the news that he was both FIV and FeLV positive. But that didn’t scare her off. She named him Velcro, because of the way he clung to people both physically and emotionally, and she got to work making sure he got everything he needed. Vaccines, bloodwork, vet care, love — Velcro got it all. Despite her efforts, finding Velcro a forever home proved difficult. Too many people overlooked him because of his diagnosis. So, she reached out to us for help, and we knew this little guy was something special. Because Velcro? He doesn’t just survive. He thrives. He’s a full-on love bug — affectionate, social, endlessly curious. He strikes up a conversation with every human he meets, talking, chirping, and rubbing up against legs like they’re old friends. He’s a Velcro kitty in every sense: he sticks to your heart and never lets go. Yes, he’s double positive. But he’s also double sweet, double snuggly, and double determined to love every minute of his life — and every person he meets. Mr Velcro is currently getting the lay of the land over in Quarantine until his eye culture comes back and then he will be joining the kiddos in House 2 in Room 1!
