HISTORY: SYLVESTER was brought in as a stray from Albuquerque and found to be FIV+. However, as is typical with many FIV+ cats, this cat has no symptoms, is in excellent health and expected to live a normal lifespan. While conventional thinking is to only place an FIV+ cat in a home with no other cats or with another FIV+ cat, there are many “mixed households.” According to Cornell University, the primary mode of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) transmission is through repeated fights resulting in the exchange of blood, and it poses no threat to humans or other species. If you would like to consider SYLVESTER for adoption but need more information on FIV, educational materials can be requested by emailing adoptions@fandfnm.org.
TEMPERAMENT: SYLVESTER is a big boy with a big heart and would appreciate a home that is patient with him. He is good at communicating his needs and enjoys ear scratches and treats.
