Location:

Chicago, IL

Description:

Cody is a white and gray male who has become a big kid since entering foster care. He loves to be chased around the house while you say his name. He enjoys playing with his feline housemates; loves the rattle mice toys that make sounds, goes wild for mouse-on-a-stick, games of chase and feather boas. When he’s not playing, he can be found snoozing on a nice piece of cardboard! He's not a lap cat but you can place him next to you on the couch and scratch his head. It's easy to build a bond with this guy by placing him on your bed and rubbing him; saying his name and having eye contact. He loves it! He has really blossomed in his foster home since being found on the street eating garbage, scratched up and injured. He has healed wonderfully and is coming into his own as a house cat. We estimate his date of birth at 10/21/2019. Cody is FIV positive. What Should You Know About FIV:Humans nor dogs can catch FIV: It is exclusively a feline virus.Cats can only spread it to other cats by blood: This means a deep, deep bite down to the gums or a very deep scratch down to the claw cuticle. Playful wrestling will not warrant this, only very rough, out-to-kill fights, which is why many shelter cats who have lived on the streets, unfortunately, have contracted it. An FIV+ cat is very unlikely to spread the virus to an FIV- cat while play-fighting. FIV is not a "sickness": There are no medications or special treatment of any kind required. There is no medication required for the majority of their life. All FIV does is lower a cat's immune system, so he should not go outside. This is the only major stipulation of owning an FIV+ cat. He should be indoors, and if you notice something amiss, the cat should be taken to a vet sooner rather than later since they have low immune systems. Otherwise, nothing about owning an FIV+ cat takes extra effort or expense during their good years. They are just like normal cats.
