GORGEOUS YOUNG FIV LOVEBUG ADORES PEOPLE AND LIVED PEACEFULLY WITH OTHER CATS UNTIL HIS HUMAN PASSED AWAY Hello friends My name is Benny. Yes I am FIV which means that I have Feline Immunodeficiency Virus. Let s talk about this and then we ll get right into the many reasons why I am completely fabulous and going to make someone a very happy purrson This is not the same as Feline AIDS (nor it is like the human form) you cannot catch it and my care requirements are no different from what any diligent and attentive cat lover does for his or her cat companions. Feline AIDS is a condition which may (or may not) develop at the end of a cat s life. An FIV cat does not necessarily develop Feline AIDS. That should clear up any confusion you may have about FIV which is what I have. I lived peacefully and contentedly with other non-FIV cats in my home until our human became ill and passed away. I am not aggressive I did not fight with my feline compatriots nor exhibit any other behavior wherein FIV might be transmitted to another cat through a deep tissue puncture wound - and that is the only way it can be transmitted. Here s what I ll need in terms of care I ll need you to feed me a high quality diet (preferably a grain-free high-protein canned wet food) come to know my behaviors so that you can notice changes that may be health-related develop a good working relationship with a veterinarian who is current on FIV issues and seek that veterinarian s assistance if you notice any changes in my behavior. That s all. Wouldn t you do that for any kitty I thought so Now onto the good stuff - ME I am a truly gorgeous two (2) year old boy with brown tabby markings lots and lots of soft silky snowy white fur and a beautiful face with chocolate and honey tones centered with a white blaze and stunning green eyes. I have the most adorable little short bob tail. It ll make you smile. My personality and disposition are equally as wonderful. I am a true sweetheart. I absolutely LOVE people. I will soak up as much affection as you can give me and return it right back to you. I m gentle and happy. I like to play but most of all I love to be near you and to interact with you. You ll see how happy I become when you enter the room. I hope you ll want me by your side as often as possible - I m meant to be a faithful best friend. I know how to do just that and I can t wait to show you. My new volunteer friends here at King Street Cats are so happy with me. They know what a special catch I am They will answer any questions you have about FIV. Please come to meet me. It s easy to get started send an email to --X(at)------ and ask for me Benny the lovebug.
