Mocha Man, a senior gentleman with a heart of gold, tested positive for the FELV when he arrived in March 2011 at FieldHaven from a high-kill shelter. Although he has the Leukemia virus it does not stop him from enjoying all that life has to offer this kitty. He purrs, and talks and purrs and talks nonstop. If he sees you he lets you know with a sweet MEOW! He appreciates everything that comes his way from a nice snuggly bed to head scratches.

Because of his age he receives nutritional support plus a daily dose of Cosequin to help with his old bones. Presently he lives in a wonderful FieldHaven foster home where he enjoys naps in the sun and supervised visits exploring the garden.

I'd like to sponsor Mocha Man for $10/month!

In November I celebrated my 6th anniversary at FieldHaven. You might not think a cat would be celebrating the fact that it lived life at a shelter, (I would say that's pretty true for most of the cats that come to FieldHaven) but, for me, this really is my home. At FieldHaven I pretty much have my way with everything. I have dozens of volunteers who watch out for me and give me (mostly) whatever I want. They worry about me every day. "Where's Lindy today?" "Has Lindy had her wet food today?" "Is Lindy warm (or cool) enough?" I get the run of the ranch but mainly spend my time around the shelter. Because that’s where I get treats, lots of brushing and people are always cooing over me, telling me how fabulous and beautiful I am. What's not to like about this life?

I came to FieldHaven in November 2005 from a rescuer in another county. I came with a very short resume; 3-4 year old spayed, tortoiseshell polydactyl (many toes) female with a nice personality. My first exam by FieldHaven’s veterinarian, Dr. Peterson, revealed that not revealing my true age - I was really much older and had some major immune system problems; I had a condition called Stomatitis which is basically severe, painful gingivitis. It's like my body was actually allergic to my teeth. To treat it I had to have most of my teeth removed. That helped but I still have to receive regular injections to keep my mouth from being inflamed and sore. I do love to eat wet food but I don't eat a lot at one time.

I hate to be indoors. Just hate it! Several years ago one of the volunteers tried to adopt me. She had the most beautiful home and she gave me everything I could possibly want. But I cried and cried until she brought me back to FieldHaven. I am much happier with green grass under my feet.

With those captivating eyes, Hot Rod always grabs the attention of potential adopters. She has a bubbly personality, a beautiful coat and is a Manx. What's not to like about that combination? Not much except for the fact that Hot Rod suffers from a congenital spinal defect that causes bowel and bladder dysfunction. In short, Hot Rod needs to have her bladder expressed two times daily and also have daily medication to encourage bowel movements. Not exactly something your average adopter is willing to consider taking on.

Hot Rod came to FieldHaven as a kitten when she was found in the bushes near our local spay/neuter clinic. Her condition wasn't apparent for several days. But pretty much from the very beginning she has had to have this special care each and every day. FieldHaven is fortunate to have a volunteer who is dedicated to Hot Rods needs but if she isn’t available to be at the shelter Hot Rod has to be boarded with our vet.

We hope someday a special person will come along for Hot Rod but, realistically, that may never happen. Hot Rod has a happy, full life at FieldHaven with an army of caring volunteers so if she never gets adopted she has a pretty fulfilling life.

Your support of Hot Rod will help us provide the extensive care Hot Rod requires.
