Fluffу Kitten Freddy Krueger Escapes Оutdated Stigmas And Finds A Forever Нome!
When we last saw the kitten named Freddy Krueger, he was living his fluffiest life in foster care. After a scare with some intestinal and “potty” issues, he was on the mend. A natural in front of the camera, his foster mom knew that it wouldn’t take long for him to find a forever home. But there was one outdated stigma that may make it a bit “scary” for potential adopters.
At less than 2 months old, Freddy Krueger had tested positive for FIV, or the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus.
And with this can come numerous outdated stigmas that cause a wave of fear to wash over some people. But it’s not a big deal! Because of a few reasons.
One, FIV positive cats can live an absolutely normal life. And a long one at that! It just means that that need to be inside only cats, so that they do not have to “fight” to survive. FIV is spread primarily through deep bite wounds and blood, so avoiding this is key. It will also hinder the spreading of the virus to street cats with no medical attention.
Two, if these felines DO happen to get sick, they need to be treated ASAP. But let’s be honest. Any loving cat servant is going to address any health issues immediately anyways, so what’s the difference. These cats can benefit from daily supplements and vitamins as well. But again…what cat doesn’t?!
