About

Meet SASHA FIERCE

All cats and kittens have received age-appropriate vaccinations; been dewormed; been spayed or neutered; and cats over the age of four months have been tested for Feline Leukemia (FeLeuk) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). Sasha Is FIV POSITIVE - WHAT IS FIV? (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus)• A viral infection that infects ONLY cats.• People or other types of animals CAN NOT get this virus.HOW IS FIV TRANSMITTED?• Fortunately, the virus itself is very fragile in the environment, and is hard tocatch. Almost 100% of FIV is passed from one cat to another in a fight, by a deeppenetrating bite wound.• FIV can also be transmitted via blood transfusion.• Mother to kitten infection is possible, though unusual.* Many kittens who initially test positive don’t have the disease, they haveantibodies from mom, then test negative and stay negative once they areno longer nursing.HOW IS FIV NOT TRANSMITTED?• Friendly contact between cats like nose-to-nose contact, mutual grooming,sharing toys, food, water and litter does NOT appear to be a means of FIVtransmission. (Unfortunately, this same type of contact CAN transmit FelineLeukemia, another infectious feline specific virus)• You will not carry FIV particles on your clothing or shoes should you be pettingand snuggling a positive cat, then go pet and snuggle a negative cat.Edmond Animal Services offers an adoption fee of $25 following an approved application and is open for adoptions six days a week with the exception of 11 major holidays.
