Adopt Percy a Tiger Striped Domestic Shorthair (short coat) cat in Bridgeport

Location:

Bridgeport, CT

Description:

Percy is a handsome adult about 3 years old who loves to have attention and spend time with people. He gets along with other cats and would be a great companion for another adult or senior cat in your home or just for you! In his current foster home he enjoys playing with a one year old male cat and they love to chase each other and wrestle! Percy has tested positive for FIV, also known at kitty Aids. Just like with people it is NOT contagious through casual contact. It's safe to share food, water, and litter box with a negative cat. FIV is typically only passed by a deep bite wound, where saliva from the positive cat enters the blood stream of another kitty. This is very rare in socialized house cats. FIV cats may have a shorter life span in part due to the fact that with a compromised immune system they are more prone to contracting infections. FIV positive cats must live strictly indoors to reduce the chances of contracting something dangerous. FIV positive cats can live well into their teens and live a very normal life. Percy is currently living side by side in a foster home with several negative cats. His eyes tend to be a little watery and we recommend Lysine (an immune system booster) at least once a day mixed into his canned food. If interested in adopting, start at CatsCT.org . Percy is in a foster home and available to meet by appointment any Saturday at PETCO, 4559 Main St, Bridgeport.
