About Sweetie (Domestic Short Hair) in San Diego, CA 92111

Sweetie is waiting for you at Animal Rescuers Without Borders in San Diego, CA 92111. Meet Sweetie! We accepted this adorable girl in early June 2026 after she was rejected by a local San Diego shelter for being FeLV positive. We were contacted by her rescuer seeking assistance and we took her in. We do NOT normally accept FeLV kitties, but this little girl was headed to a cage for life. Her rescuer does not believe in euthanasia and living in a cage is NO life for ANY animal. We initially had thought about euthanizing this little monkey after she experienced a couple days of relaxation and fun at Casa de ARWOB, she could at least enjoy life for a while. This is something she had not experienced since she was stuck in a kennel for a month since being rescued. However, destiny kicked in. Now we have fallen in love with this little beating heart and hence her name is sweetie. She is just a total sweetheart and we are hopeful we can find an adopter or even long term foster. Sweetie arrived ARWOB mid June. Fast forward 3 weeks she is doing AMAZING. For now she is a normal cat, kitten energy and FULL of kitten shenanigans. We have come to know what a loving, social, friendly and playful this cutie can be. She is currently at casa de arwob with lots of dogs and cats hence we DESPERATE to find a foster home with NO cats (unless they too are felv positive) she is staying in one of the bathrooms for 21 hours a day, with 3 play times a day when we put ALL the cats away so she can have the run of the house for couple of hours and RUN and be babied at her heart content but wouldn't it be WONDERFUL if we could find a forever adopter who understand that Felike Leukemia(FeLV) positive kitties are just like any other cat, however, some kitties tend to have a short life span and start declining when they are teenagers and sometimes these felv kitties CAN grow to be senior cats.We just don't know. You can adopt this girl and be heart broken within the year or luck out and ha
