Batta is the perfect combination of sweet and playful! Some of his most endearing qualities are as follows:

- He will very politely ask you if he can come under the blankets and snuggle with you. He loves to be covered in blankets where it is dark and he can take a nap on top of you.

- When he is content or comfortable, he makes happy noises and sighs

- He absolutely adores giving his human as many kisses as he can

-H is tail has a little white tip to it, so it looks like a little flashlight or creature is following behind him.

When he isn't snuggling with you or following you around, he is incredibly playful! He loves anything from little mice toys, to feather toys, to paper balls he finds on the floor. He has a wide vocal range, and will make the cutest sounds depending on what he wants. Come meet this very special boy today!

************************

The FIV virus is not a reason to pass over Batta. It is not transmissible to people or to non-cat species and is not a death sentence.   It simply reduces a cat's immune system as the cat ages, which can leave the cat more vulnerable to other feline infections later in life. Cat to cat transmission does not occur with casual contact and it is not airborne.

Cats who are FIV+ live long, happy lives!  Please check out the below informational links about FIV to understand why it is not a reason to shy away from adopting:
