About Louisa (Domestic short hair) in Candler

Louisa is waiting for you at Mountain Pet Rescue Asheville in Candler, NC 28715. Louisa is the sweetest and funniest little gal! She looks like she was put together by a committee. She’s got a beautiful sleek coat that looks like she may have some bengal cat in her. Then she’s got the cutest little pointy face with big pointy ears and a thin, long, funny tail. But never mind her unique looks. Her personality is what really shines through. She is a bit of a wild child and lives to play. But when she does finally tire out, she is ready to cuddle and be the sweetest little lap cat. She loves to sleep with her person and will sleep right on your head if you let her - she can’t get close enough. And she has a great little purr. She’s a precious little gal, and she’s very fun and easy to have around and easy to fall in love with. She has a great little companion in Voltaire, and I think would do well with another cat if you were only adopting one of them. She has not been exposed to children or dogs that we are aware of. She has a great appetite and fantastic litter box manners; just an all around perfect kitten. She will likely be very nervous during our adoption event as she needs some quiet adjustment time. She would also do best in a more calm home environment.Louisa has tested FIV+. What does that mean? When a mama cat has FIV, she will have FIV antibodies. When she gives birth, there is a high likelihood that she will pass those antibodies to some or all of the kittens. This does not mean that she was transmitted the disease to them—in fact, while maternal antibody transmission is common, transplacental transmission of the actual disease is extremely uncommon. So when you see a positive FIV result in a kitten, it’s generally just a sign that their mama had FIV and passed the antibodies to her kittens. Antibodies can be passed to just one littermate, to multiple, or to the entire litter. These maternal antibodies are present during the first months of life, then
