Meet this week's adoptable pet

Pets Rescue Me
Rescue Me: Rachel One By One/ACCT Philly

Rachel is ready to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with you.

Rachel came to the shelter as a stray with an injured eye, which required surgical removal. She is also an FIV-positive cat. The disease affects the immune system, but cats with the condition can still live long, healthy lives.

  • QUICK FACTS
  • Breed: domestic short hair
  • Age: 1 year
  • Sex: female
  • Size: 10 pounds
  • Color: black
  • Spayed/Neutered: yes
  • House-trained: yes

ACCT Philly can help those looking to adopt Rachel understand the virus and become informed on how FIV-positive felines are just like any other.

Even with the hardships Rachel has faced in her life, her sweet and loving attitude hasn't wavered.

She likes to playfully head-butt and cuddle.

Take her home and she'll make a great companion.
