FeLV+

Kolsch craves attention. He loves to be pet and will curl up on your lap or in your arms. He begins purring at the first sight of a human, and enjoys being picked up for snuggles.  He, and all his siblings, love to nap in their tall cat tree where they can watch the goings on in the Lobby and beckon visitors their way. When he was little, Kolsch liked to burrow under blankets or pillows at nap time, particularly if his brother was not nearby for warmth and companionship. He is a cuddly young cat through and through.

Kolsch was rescued by animal control along with his brother, Ale, and three sisters (India, Gose, and Lager). At intake, these boys stood out from the rest of their litter, testing positive for feline leukemia (FeLV+). Special arrangements were in order, and the tabby brothers headed off to a temporary foster home where they were intensively socialized and blossomed into the endearing cats they are today.

The young brothers are still very active kittens who run and tumble, jump and climb. They purr with abandon and like to snuggle at nap time. Small toy mice are a particular favorite, and Kolsch will carry these around the room. Because of their FeLV+ status, they should only be housed with other FeLV+ cats, dogs, or other non-feline pets. Ideally, we’d love to see the brothers be adopted as a pair.
