Pookie FIV Positive Gender: Female Approximate Age (As of 2025): Less than a year Arrived From: Pembroke, NC Arrival Day: 1/30/2025
Pookie’s journey began in an apartment complex where she and her siblings were forced to scrounge for food to survive. A kind-hearted person began feeding them in an effort to earn their trust and trap them for vet care. Unfortunately, when the landlord found out, he insisted they be removed or "taken care of." Both Pookie and her sibling were suffering from upper respiratory infections, and Pookie’s eyes were severely gunked over. Thankfully, Alyson stepped in to help and was able to catch and foster them, giving them the time and care they needed to heal. Once Pookie was feeling better, we discovered that she had entropion, a condition where her eyelids turned inward, irritating her eyes. At the vet, she was also tested and found to be FIV-positive. Her sibling, with a more confident nature, was quickly adopted. Pookie, however, remained more timid, likely due to having to fend for herself at such a young age. Despite her shyness, she is an incredibly playful little girl who loves to head-bonk her human friends!
