Story
Please contact Jamie (jamie@pawsandprayers.org) for more information about this pet. Meet Bellatrix! Bellatrix is a 7 year old domestic medium hair female kitty. She is very sweet and loving to her humans but prefers to be the only kitty in the house. Bellatrix is FIV positive but it is not contagious to humans or animals other cats. Belletrix gets Lysine daily, to boost her immune system, and must be continued. She is such a sweetie, and deserves a happy home! Her adoption fee is $125. Many FIV-infected cats can live happily with the virus for a long time, and in some cats, the virus may never cause illness. Whether disease develops depends on several factors including the strain of FIV a cat is infected with, the cat’s immune response, and the presence or absence of other infections.  The main aims of managing an FIV infection are to prevent further spread of infection to other cats and to maintain a good quality of life for the infected cat. General and supportive treatment includes: Neutering all FIV-infected cats to reduce the risk of fighting and the spread of infection Keeping FIV-positive cats indoors and keeping them away from non-infected cats. This helps prevent the spread of infection to other cats and reduces exposure of the FIV-infected cat to other infections. In stable homes where cats don’t fight, the risk of spread of infection is low Feeding good quality, commercial cat food and avoiding raw meat, eggs and unpasteurised dairy products Maintaining routine preventive healthcare (regular flea and worm control, routine vaccinations etc.) Veterinary health checks twice yearly. Your vet may recommend certain blood tests periodically to monitor your cat’s health Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment of any secondary or concurrent diseases Paws and Prayers Cats are spay/neuter, fully vaccinated, FIV/FeLV tested (positive for FIV), dewormed, current on flea/tick prevention, and microchipped at the time of adoption. They are litterbox trained unless otherwise noted. Please be aware we do not walk around standing & holding our shelter cats - this is unnatural to them and we like to keep them as comfortable as possible. Please read the entire bio before emailing the foster with questions. Meet and greets are not arranged unless an adoption application is filled out and approved and are by appointment only.
