Jynx - Siamese Cat

Shelter: BC SPCA - Alberni-Clayoquot Animal ID: 481983 Birthdate: February 25, 2014 - Adult Spayed/Neutered: No Male Jynx is a beautiful 3-5 year old Lynx Point Siamese mix who has had a rough life so far. Jynx was found as an injured stray with lots of battle scars that tell a story. Jynx was diagnosed with Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) or Feline aids. It is transmitted through bites and bodily fluids, so he will need to remain an indoor cat without other cats in the home. There is no cure for this disease, but many cats with FIV achieve normal lifespans and don't require daily medications. FIV positive cats should have frequent veterinarian check ups and keep up to date on preventative care, as well as need to seek veterinary care if showing any signs of illness. Cats with FIV may have suppressed immune systems, so they are not recommended for people with compromised immune systems. Jynx is sweet but shy and would do best in a quieter household to keep him stress free.
