Nubbins
started his life as an indoor cat, but when his person died, he
was sent to a farm where he contracted FIV. Nubbins is very healthy,
though, and is likely to live a long, healthy life. He is very
sweet and affectionate, but he needs a home without other cats.
Ikey
is FIV positive and needs a home either with no other cats or
with other FIV positive cats. Ike seems very young and shows no
symptoms yet, so he could still live a very long life. He does
have an eye injury, but otherwise is fat and happy! (and extremely
affectionate!)

Scrappy
also has FIV. He is one of the few who actually came from this
county. Like most of our FIV boys, he's a lover and would really
love a home of his own.
Megan
is the only girl in the FIV room. Unaltered male cats are at higher
risk of contracting FIV because of bite wounds from fights.

Tush
Magoo
was one of our most special cats. He was FIV positive, he had
been shot, and after years of being in rescue, he developed chronic
kidney failure. He was very sweet and loving despite the rough
life he led. Tush definitely paid his dues, having eye injuries,
part of his nose missing, and a .22 shell lodged in his right
cheek. For more information on FIV,

Mason
was a very special cat who had a rough life outside. Unfortunately,
he was positive for both FIV
and feline leukemia.
He was very affectionate and fell in love with him immediately.
Mason also had diabetes and required insulin shots on a daily
basis. To learn more about dogs and cats with diabetes and to
find resources to help, check out IMOM.
In addition, he developed chronic herpes virus in his eyes. In
July of 2003 his eyesight was failing and the herpes virus had
made him very uncomfortable.
Because
of the diabetes, he had not had "good" food in over
a year. So we prepared him one last great meal, gave him a sedative,
and when he'd fallen asleep, we had the vet inject him with a
drug that would put him to rest. It was terribly difficult for
us to realize we had to let him go. He no longer had a very good
quality of life, and for Mason's sake, we finally had to let go.
