VIVIEN

HISTORY: Vivien was a transfer from the Fluvanna SPCA.

MEDICAL NOTE: Vivien tested positive for feline leukemia virus.

Vivien is a happy cat who wears her tuxedo with aplomb.  One of the first to greet visitors to L3 and incredibly receptive to pets, Vivien has won over many with her polite, easygoing personality.  Vivien can sometimes get overlooked because she doesn’t demand attention like some of the other cats in her room, she just waits for you to come to her and is happy when you do.  Vivien roams all around the room and porch so might be found outside, on top of a condo, on the floor, or any number of other places.  She likes to make use of all the amenities CFC has to offer!  Due to her FeLV+ status, Vivien cannot be kept with cats who do not also have the virus.  She gets along great with others, though, so would make a great addition to a FeLV+ cat home!

More about me from Volunteer Scott November 2024: Va-Va-Va-Vivian
Wander into L3 (the FeLV+ room) and you’ll be immediately greeted by Charlie and Daisy with Houdini not far behind. Micha will make a beeline for your lap. Hunter will be lazing around and give you a “hey, man” nod. But odds are, you’ll have to seek out Vivian. She’s napping and knows you’ll come to her when you’ve finished appeasing the others. They’re so “needy” she’ll tell you. For a lady who’s only been here 4 years she’s wise to how things work around here.

When it’s her turn for pets she’ll pretend she’s doing you a favor. But get some good head and back rubs in and, if you listen closely, you’ll hear her quiet-but-happy purrs. She’s not into playing with toys (with rare exceptions) and that damn laser dot can bounce around all it wants to, as far as she cares. But she does enjoy your company, so drop by sometimes, won’t you?
