Pet Of The Week: Adopt Little Darling Darla
Darla is a well mannered cat, who she doesn't climb on any tables, doesn't chew on wires, and doesn't scratch up any furniture.
ARLINGTON, VA — Darla is a small and sweet loving cat. She is calm and loves her long cat naps, preferably right next to you! Darla is well mannered —she doesn't climb on any tables, doesn't chew on wires, and doesn't scratch up any furniture. She really is a little lady.
Darla has been staying in a foster home with a dog. Although they aren't best friends, they have been coexisting very well and keep to themselves around each other.
Darla is FIV+, and positively love-able! FIV is a slow-progressing virus that can compromise a cat's immune system, reducing its ability to fight off illnesses. Most cats with FIV live long, healthy lives, and just need to be kept indoors and get vet check ups regularly.
