Indiana Senior Cat with the Heart of a Kitten Has Adorable Underbite
Allow us to introduce you to this week's Pet of the Week from the Vanderburgh Humane Society.
Meet Midge! She’s 8 years old, but a kitten at heart. Just look at her play! Midge has the most charming underbite, a spunky personality, and enjoys other cats, dogs, and people. Midge is FIV+ and that’s okay! Most cats with this can and do live long, happy and healthy lives alongside other felines. Please inquire with our knowledgeable Adoption Counselors for details! To adopt Midge, please visit her at River Kitty Cat Cafe. Her adoption fee is $80 and includes her spay, microchip, and up-to-date vaccines.
What is FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus)?
FIV is a lentivirus, a slow-progressing virus that can compromise a cat’s immune system, reducing its ability to fight off illnesses. The virus has a long latent period and then progresses so slowly that it may <i>never</i> affect a cat. That’s why long-term studies show what guardians and rescuers have known for decades—that FIV cats can live just as long and as healthy, and ultimately die of the same causes as Non-FIV cats. And, FIV cats can live with Non-FIV cats without spreading the virus.
What is going on at the VHS?
More cheese whiz and chicken broth, please!!
