You will often find Andy sitting by the window on his cat perch, watching the wildlife. <br /><br />Andy is FELK negative, FIV positive, neutered, current on vaccines, micro-chipped and litter box trained.

Andy carries the FIV virus, a common virus in cats that does not affect humans or any other species and it is not easily transmitted between cats. Unless an infected cat viciously bites another cat, FIV is not transmitted by sharing litter boxes, eating out of the same food bowls or by licking or grooming. Most well cared for cats with FIV live long and healthy lives. Keeping Andy indoors in a low stress environment and on a high quality, nutritious diet are key for his continued well being.<p><iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/122595832" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>
