Meet Brandy
Strike one. Brandy is extremely shy. Not that we blame her. The story that we heard is that she was an unspayed female kitty who, due to no fault of her own, was cast outside and left abandoned when her family moved away. She tried to fend for herself the best she could. She was lucky to have a neighbor feed her. She then ended up pregnant and had nowhere to go. They were able to catch her babies and bring her and the babies into the shelter.
Strike two. After she arrived at the shelter, weaned her babies and was tested, it was found that she tested ever so faintly for Feline FIV. The vet had to test her twice to make sure that the ever so light positive result was accurate. It was unfortunately true that she tested faintly positive. This means that she is in the very early stages of the disease and has many happy and healthy years ahead of her. Luckily, her babies were negative for FIV.
So, she is one of our toughest to get adopted. So sad for her that she is in that "undesirable" column. She is a wonderful little girl that simply needs someone with a big heart, patience and time in order to forge a bonded and loving relationship with her.
If you have those three things available and are willing to give this lovely girl a chance, please send an inquiry for her.
Here are some facts about FIV:
However, FIV-positive cats are in fact very adoptable, and can live the same lifespan as an FIV-negative cat. That is why many veterinarians, including the feline medicine experts at the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP), suggest owners never opt for euthanasia based on a positive test alone.Jan 23, 2017
Cats with FIV can live long and healthy lives. In fact, studies over the last 10 years or so have shown that cats with FIV often live as long as otherwise healthy cats that do not have this virus.Jan 4, 2017
