Sometimes life deals you a bad hand. Sometimes life beats you down so hard and you think you won’t survive. Meet Jake. The universe had different plans for Jake. His suffering and misfortune got noticed and a Good Samaritan stepped in to help this senior cat. The years were not kind to him, his owners were not kind to him, but his life was about to change thanks to the people who cared.

When Jack arrived at our partner veterinary clinic VCA Blossom Hill his future was unclear. He was painfully thin and his mouth was in excruciating pain rendering him incapable of eating. To add insult to injury Jake tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus. Big scary words that no cat or rescuers want to hear. While this disease can shorten a cat’s life it is not an immediate death sentence, especially if the cat is symptom free (as in Jake’s case!). After receiving an incredible amount of TLC Jakey-boy is doing great! If you to meet him, you won’t be able to help but fall in love with Jake – he is wearing his heart on his sleeve…. uhm…. on his nose to be correct! He LOVES people and he is good with dogs. Of course, due to his FeLV positive status he can’t live with other felines unless they are FeLV positive as well. But once you get to know this guy you will realize that he can deliver as much LOVE as 20 other cats. Don’t let his age and FeLV status to get between you and Jake’s love!!!
