Albert is a sweet funny guy who was living with quite a few other cats in a home on Fire Island when a local rescue group was called to come help get some of the cats adopted. He's always ready to get pet, and will headbutt your hand to show his happiness. Albert is FIV positive and FeLV negative. Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is a lentivirus, like HIV, that affects cats around the world. FIV is only contagious among cats and difficult to transmit. It is also slow-acting, so cats generally do not show any symptoms until years after being infected. The amount of time it takes for the virus to make a cat become immune compromised can vary, but once symptomatic, FIV positive cats are more vulnerable to contracting other diseases. However, with the proper care, FIV positive cats can live healthy, happy lives. Email adopt@kittykind.org to apply!
