Shadow has been adopted!

Female
Siamese Mix

Shadow is a sweet Siamese sweetheart with a gentle purr and beautiful eyes. She is quite people-oriented and a bit on the quiet side. Shadow has has tested positive for FIV ~ which means that, ideally, she would  either be an "only" cat in her home (or maybe one other), or should be adopted into a home with other FIV+ cats. (FIV+ cats have compromised immune systems and can pass on the virus to other cats through deep bite wounds ... there is no danger to dogs or humans!)  Shadow has been around other cats on a limited basis and seemed fine with other cats.
