Date of Birth: 1/25/19Adoption Fee: $100.00Date Posted: 3/1/24Hi! My name is Rayne. I am a stunningly beautiful lady with a coat of pure white fur accentuated by striking and unique eyes; one is a pale blue like the shallow waters of the ocean and the other is pale green like a beautiful leaf just sprouting in the spring. I lived with a family since I was a tiny kitten. One day, they decided they didn't want me and took me to a animal control facility. I didn't understand why they left me there because they told the people that I had always been a really good girl. I was terrified. I curled up in a corner of the cage and kept my head down. I growled a little when people tried to pet me but I never once swatted or tried to bite. I knew that was not nice. I would turn my huge, dilated eyes up to look at people but that is all. After a few weeks, the rescue lady came to pick me up. She took to her house where it was calm and quiet. I got in a box near the ceiling of the foster room so that I could watch everything and still feel safe. The rescue lady talked to me softly when she came into the room. She let me sniff her finger before she tried to pet me so I knew that she cared about me. After a few weeks, I started pressing my head into her hand and flipping over on my side rubbing my body against the side of the box to let her know that I really wanted her to stay and keep petting me. A few days after that, I came down from my perch when she came into the room and walked right over to her for pets. I even rubbed against her legs and then climbed into her lap for a little bit! I am growing more comfortable every day. You should know that I am FIV+ but it is no big deal. I can live with other cats with minimal risk of transmission. The research shows that FIV kitties live normal lives, both in quality and duration. My foster mom attached some links so you can read a little more about FIV. I will need for my new family to be patient with me when I first come home because another change will be a little intimidating. However, I will quickly learn that I am safe and loved. I will be the very best companion and friend. My foster mom already loves me. She knows you will too. Please come see me soon...it will be wonderful to meet my truly forever family.FIV Information:https://resources.bestfriends.org/article/fiv-cats-feline-immunodeficiency-virus-faqshttps://www.alleycat.org/resources/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv/
