Ted Williams Urgently Needs A Foster Home

A Save-A-Pet cat known as Ted Williams is desperately seeking a foster or adoptive home as he faces serious health issues.

Our sweet soul Ted Williams is in urgent need of help. It is crucial that he finds a foster or adoptive home now. He currently is being cared for at

This sweet and gentle 7-year old was recently diagnosed with FIP also known as feline infections peritonitis. The virus affects his immune system, and in time proves to be fatal. It only can affect cats. Ted is comfortable now but would be so much happier in a warm and loving home environment.

This is a wonderful cat that needs your help to bring up his spirits and show him the love of a family. No one can say for sure how much time Ted has, but Save-A-Pet staff say that a home environment would be the best thing for him right now. The majority of cats, especially multi-cat households, have already been exposed to the virus that can cause FIP, the corona virus. To be on the safe side, however, Ted would be happiest in his own room or as the only kitty.
