Description

SPECIAL NEEDS KITTY Carol is a little shy with strangers but warms up quickly once she gets to know someone. She enjoys sitting close to people she knows and getting petted. She also likes lounging on the screened in area where she can watch everything going on. She gets along great with all the other cats in her cottage. We feel Carol would certainly be happier in a quiet home with older children. Come meet the great looking feline, get to know her and spend some time together. After that, we are sure you will want to take her home with you. Carol is FIV positive. FIV in cats is similar to HIV (the human immunodeficiency virus) and causes a feline disease that is similar to AIDS in humans. Although FIV is similar to AIDS in humans it is a highly species-specific virus that infects only felines. While there is currently no definitive cure for FIV in felines, with proper care there is no reason a cat infected with FIV cannot live a very normal, healthy life for many years -- if managed appropriately.   Birth date Nov 2021
