Something you should know about me is I am FIV+. This sounds worse than it is! FIV is a virus that lives in a cat and can cause a weakened immune system. It is NOT contagious to humans, dogs, or any species other than cats. And it is only contagious to other cats through deep, penetrating bite wounds - something that I'm probably not going to be doing a whole lot of! FIV+ cats live close-to-normal life spans (phew!), and you would never know I had FIV just by looking at me! I'm fat and happy and healthy. The only big difference between owning a special kitty like me versus an FIV negative cat is that I can get sicker faster than other cats. So I just need to go to the vet annually on time, keep my shots up to date, and take me in as soon as I get sick with anything. That's about it! For lots more info you

All APA! foster kittens/cats are litter box-trained, tested for FeLV/FIV, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, treated for worms/fleas, microchipped and come with a 30-day health insurance plan.
