About Lizard

Lizard is FIV positive. That means he carries a virus that can affect his immune system, but for most FIV+ cats like Lizard, life is just as long and healthy as any other cat's. FIV is not easily spread—only through serious bite wounds or mating—so the risk to other cats in the home is low, especially since all cats adopted from this rescue are already neutered or spayed. Lizard will benefit from a slow introduction to new animal companions and a bit of patience as he settles in. Routine veterinary care is the most important recommendation for FIV+ cats, as early detection of any illness goes a long way. Many cats like Lizard live full, symptom-free lives, so with some simple care, he can blend seamlessly into your home. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
