Hi! My name is Biggie and I am about 3 years old. When I came into the Pet Pantry I was a little under the weather. I also tested positive for FIV. But don't let that scare you! Here is a medical note from the Veterinarian:
Biggie tested positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) at the time of his neutering when he was younger. His test remained positive for FIV at the time of his intake to the Pet Pantry. This means that Biggie is carrying the virus, and it makes it harder for him to fight infections. At the time of his arrival, Biggie had been dealing with eye infections for a long time. His eyes were treated here with erythromycin ophthalmic salve and he responded very nicely to this. His eyes appear normal now.
Biggie also had some dental issues when he arrived. He had a dental procedure while he was with us, and unfortunately he needed to have several teeth extracted. He has a condition where the teeth develop defects that erode the tooth tissue , a condition that is not entirely understood. These erosions can be very painful and lead to tooth fracture. The affected teeth have been removed, but it is likely that Biggie will need further dental care in the future. He does not appear to have mouth or throat inflammation (stomatitis), which can be a condition related to having FIV. Regular veterinary exams are recommended to keep an eye on Biggie's oral health.
Biggie may eat canned or dry food. He should not eat dental diets or treats as they may be too firm form him to crush with his gums and jaws where he no longer has teeth.
Biggie may share a home with other healthy, well-vaccinated adult cats with whom he is friendly. If adopted into a home with other cats, introductions MUST be done
slowly to avoid fighting with the residents. A brochure with general information about FIV has been included in his adoption folder. Your veterinarian will be the best source to answer any further questions you may have about Biggie's health.
I am
neutered, microchipped, and up to date on my vaccines. I am available for adoption at the Pet Pantry’s main facility, 26 Millersville Road, Lancaster. If you think I may be the purrfect match for your family please fill out an adoption application! Applications are available at our location as well as online at petpantrylc.org. From there, our adoption coordinator will be in touch!
