Here's what the humans have to say about me:
What is FIV?
Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is one of the more common illnesses found in cats around the world. But donât panic â with the right care, FIV positive kitties can live long, happy, cuddly lives!
________________________________________
ðº How do cats get FIV?
The most common way FIV spreads is through deep bite wounds, usually from serious cat fights. It can also pass through blood, in utero, or through the milk of an infected mama cat.
But hereâs the good news:
Plenty of FIV positive and FIV negative cats live together peacefully for years without ever spreading the virus â especially when theyâre friendly and not prone to fighting.
And donât worry:
FIV canât infect dogs, humans, or any other species. Itâs a cats only kind of thing.
________________________________________
ð» Can FIV be treated?
Thereâs no cure that removes the virus, but most FIV positive cats do just fine! The key is focusing on treating any secondary infections and keeping them healthy overall. With routine vet care, many FIV positive kitties live completely normal lives.
________________________________________
𧡠Can FIV positive cats live long, good lives?
Absolutely!
Many FIV positive cats live lives that are just as long, loving, and full of naps as any other cat. With good care â especially keeping an eye on infections and dental health â they can be amazing, happy companions.
________________________________________
ðâ⬠Can FIV positive and FIV negative cats live together?
Yes!
As long as the cats get along and donât fight, coexisting is totally possible. The biggest risk is from biting, so introductions should be slow â maybe some âseparate rooms at firstâ to make sure everyone stays chill.

THE CRAZY CAT PEOPLE YOUR MOTHER WARNED YOU ABOUT
We have a simple motto here - cats rule. We focus all of our time, energy, and resources into what is best for the cats in our care. New Beginnings Animal Rescue is a No-Kill, 501(c)(3) Exempt, Non-Profit cat rescue.
We started this rescue back in 2010 because we wanted to do more for our community and the animals in it. During the great economic collapse, we started a pet food pantry to help pets stay with their owners. But for those cats who could not stay with their families, we found fosters to take care of them until adopters came along and gave them new, forever homes. We opened our Adoption Center in 2013 and have become a gathering place for animal lovers to share stories, educate one another, make a difference in their community, learn responsibility and compassion, and to cater to every whim and deserve of the felines who reside in it.
We are completely run by volunteers, funded by donations, and powered by cat hair.
