Barney was a stray cat. He is such a friendly, cheerful fellow that it’s hard to imagine how he ended up lost and alone. But now here he is at Feline Rescue—with a warm place to stay, a soft bed, and another chance at finding a loving home!
Barney is an easy-going young cat, who unfortunately, has tested positive for the feline leukemia virus. Feline leukemia is an immunodeficiency virus. It is not transferable to dogs or to people and is only transferable to other cats that live in direct contact with each other. Some cats with feline leukemia live for years with no ill effects other than a weakened immune system. Others live short lives. Because he faces an uncertain future, it can be hard to find a home for a cat like Barney.
Right now Barney is happy, healthy, and active. At Feline Rescue, we believe that a happy cat like Barney deserves to live his life. It’s the quality of life that really matters. And we want Barney to have the best life ever! If you could give Barney a home and a wonderful life, come to the adoption center and meet him. You’ll love his sunny disposition!

Barney could be an only cat, could live with a dog, or might be a good companion for another feline-leukemia-positive cat. If you are interested in learning more about Barney, please stop by the Feline Rescue Adoption Center or call 651-642-5900, ext.3.
