My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dior is a friendly and outgoing boy who came to us as a stray. He looks grumpy but he's just a little shy with new people. He likes to be petted, play, and have attention once he knows you. He can be a bit feisty so we recommend a home w/o small children. We're not sure yet how he gets along with other cats but he would be very happy as an only kitty.

Dior has tested positive for FIV, similar to HIV in people. It can not be passed to other cats through casual contact, sharing food, water, or a litter box. It can not be passed to people or other pet species. FIV is mainly transmitted by a deep bite wound.

FIV is not a death sentence. Kitties who test positive can live long, happy, and healthy lives. A recent study by Cornell University suggests that FIV negative and positive cats can safely live side by side in the same home with no issues.
