Hello, I’m Sparticat. I may be a senior, but my spirit is young. My days are filled with gentle purrs and soft nuzzles, as I seek the comfort of a friendly touch. I’m a loyal companion, always ready for a cuddle and a chat. Yes, I’m FIV-positive, but don’t let that deter you. It just means I need a little extra care, a little more understanding. But I promise, the love I give in return is worth it. I’m not just a cat, I’m Sparticat, your future confidante, your furry friend. Adopt me, and let’s fill our days with sweetness and companionship. Meet me from noon to 5 p.m. daily at the Good Shepherd Humane Society Adoption Center, 6486 Highway 62 West, Eureka Springs or call 479-253-9188.
