Cats with Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV)
Humane Society of Walden's FIV+ cats
All fees are waived to approved adopters.
How Is FIV Transmitted?
What Are the Symptoms of FIV?
After the initial infection, the cat is often completely asymptomatic for many years. Infected cats who receive supportive medical care and are kept in a stress-free, indoor environment can live relatively comfortable lives for months to years before the disease reaches its chronic stages.
In the event that your cat is exhibiting symptoms you should contact your veterinarian.
