Domestic Short Hair (Short Coat)

Description:

Hi there! My name’s George, and I’m a sleek black domestic shorthair looking for my forever home. I’m a neutered male, about 2 years and 9 months old, and I recently joined Ames Animal Shelter through their Third Chance program on November 6, 2025.I was the longest resident at my last shelter I have never stopped believing my special person is out there. I'm a calm, friendly guy with a big heart who's ready to start a new chapter.I’m also FIV positive, which just means I’ll need to stay indoors and get regular vet care. I can still live a long, happy life — even with other friendly cats, as long as we get along! The Best Friends Animal Society has a great page about adopting an FIV positive cat that you can see at https://resources.bestfriends.org/article/fiv-cats-faqs-feline-immunodeficiency-virus I’m a great litterbox user and have a medium energy level, the perfect mix of playtime and relaxation.If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s been waiting patiently for his chance, I’d love to meet you. Come visit me at Ames Animal Shelter — I might just be your new best friend!
