my grandpas cat just died of something called FIV, its like AIDS but for cats
pretty shitty
A positive result from a Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) test can have a devastating effect to a cat owner. Innumerable questions roil through the mind: How could this have happened? What can I do? How long does he have? I thought he had been vaccinated against FIV. Isn't there some miracle medication he can take?
I can attest to this mental turmoil; my baby , who has shared my life and my heart for 18 years, has just been tested positive for FIV. Shannon has Feline AIDS.
Like most cat lovers, my first instinct is that I want to learn everything possible about the FIV virus, and as the About Cats Guide, my second instinct is that I need to share this information with my readers, in order to help others who find themselves and their cats in this kind of situation.
