Seflies by Tank

Our handsome and friendly pal Tank is a seriously photogenic housepanther. He also seems to often be in the right place at the right time for a visually interesting shot. See for yourself!

Tank and his awesome roommate Hashbrown
Tank loves catnip. He was rolling around in some right before this photo was taken.

Tank, who is about 3 1/2 years old, was seen being dumped by his (lousy) former humans. Luckily, some good Samaritans rescued him, and he was eventually brought to PAWS. He's a gentle giant, and sweet as can be. He loves being pet and gets along well with other nice cats. Tank is neutered and current on his vaccinations.

Tank has tested positive for FIV, but it's important to remember this does not mean he can't live a long and happy life. According to Best Friends Animal Society, "FIV-positive cats can live normal lives, both in quality and duration. They just need to be monitored for infections and dental issues. But if they’re well cared for, they can be healthy, happy, wonderful pets." FIV cannot be passed to other cats through casual contact, or by sharing food, water, or a litter box. Nor can it be passed to people or other pet species.

Tank is such a good dude. To know him is to love him. So come meet Tank today, and fall in love!

It's Sunday, which means we're hopping along in the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop, hosted by our pals at The Cat On My Head. Be sure to check it out to see who else is hopping along (or to join in on the fun)!

Tank, we HATE your former humans for what they did. Mom thinks all people who dump their pets need to be jailed. You are an extremely handsome house panther, and we pray your forever home is just moments away. We love the name of your roommate. Made our mom giggle. Thanks for being today's hopper. Good luck!

Tank, what a big handsome boy you are, I can see why you are named Tank! Hash Brown is a good name, too! Those were some rotten humans who dumped you. We're sending lots of purrs for you to find a home soon, and that goes for Hash brown too!

Tank, you are a furry handsome mancat. Did We mention, we have a strong partiality for housepanthers?
We hope Karma catches up with those horrible humans who abandoned you and that your REAL fur-ever family will find you soon.

Tank, your name is perfect! It doesn't need changing at all once you are adopted! And Hashbrown...wear it proudly! Yours too is a perfect name! Both of you need a mom and dad, and I sure hope they get in there today and see you. Maggie did a wonderful job of the Gilbran cat on the wall. :-)
(If it was Maggie...I'm doing that old assuming thing. )

BRAVO on a super shot of Tank. Oh man if this doesn't get him adopted nothing will. How shameful of his former (silly and brainless) caretakers for their evil deed.

COME ON TANK!!!!
