Monique’s habitat was embellished with exquisite ornaments, and she received one-of-a-kind playthings. Unfortunately, even though the shelter went to great lengths to publicize Monique’s arrival, not a soul appeared on the much-awaited day.

The staff had a feeling that the adoption process for Monique might be delayed because of her Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). Commonly, people believe that cats infected with FIV will eventually die because there is no cure for the virus. However, just like humans with HIV, cats with FIV can lead a healthy and happy life.

To provide a safe and healthy environment for Monique, prospective adopters should take measures to cat-proof their outdoor space. This will prevent Monique from coming into contact with other cats and potentially spreading the FIV virus. Additionally, it’s worth noting that humans cannot contract FIV from cats.

The shelter’s staff speaks highly of Monique, describing her as a loving and friendly animal who enjoys being around people. It’s always saddening to witness an animal in need of a new home, especially when they possess immense love to offer and could make a wonderful companion.

Once the photos from her personal party surfaced on various social media platforms, they quickly gained popularity and were shared extensively. Despite this, the shelter continued to have hope that the perfect candidate would discover them.

On a particular evening, Adnan from London was engrossed in watching the local news when he stumbled upon a picture of Monique, a charming and fluffy tabby. Her cute looks immediately caught his fancy, and he felt an instant connection with her. Adnan knew that Monique was destined to be his forever feline friend, so he decided to apply for adoption to create the perfect bond between them.

Shortly after, she was able to establish her permanent abode and Adnan was ecstatic about it.

According to Adnan, for the past few months, he has been exclusively hanging out with Monique. He characterizes Monique as a talkative feline who greets him every morning and requests goodies whenever she pleases. Additionally, Adnan notes that Monique is constantly seeking his attention by nudging him for affectionate scratches and cuddles.

Monique is thoroughly enjoying her newfound life with her loving owner. At first, she would enthusiastically leap onto her human’s lap, which could be inconvenient during work hours. However, she has now found many cozy napping spots throughout the house and instead chooses to ask for scratches from her human. We wish Monique and Adnan a long and happy life together!

The shelter for animals has recently shared that they are still receiving requests from people who are keen on adopting the cat. Our sincere wish is that these hopeful adopters would also consider providing a caring home for another cat. All the pictures included in this post have been sourced from Battersea and for more information, do take a look at their Facebook page. On a positive note, a cat that had been unwanted was finally adopted after spending an astonishing 433 days at a shelter.
