Sunday Cat of the Week: Ledger (ADOPTED!!)

Ledger the cat relaxes.

Ledger the cat has a lot of admirers. The handsome 4-year old coon mix who resides at HART of Maine is loved by all the volunteers. He is so friendly. Are you interested in becoming one of Ledger's biggest fans? You can by providing him with a warm and loving home.

The cat was surrendered to HART because his owner was moving.

The rescue discovered that Ledger is FIV+. Cats who are FIV+ can live long, happy lives. Franny Syufy who writes the About.com Cat's guide reports that FIV cats "can lead a reasonably normal life span."

HART of Maine recommends for FIV+ cats:

• sound diet 
• routine veterinary exams protection against secondary infection (i.e., vaccinate against other viral diseases, control parasites - fleas/worms/mites, keep indoors and away from other cats)

To learn more about FIV check out the facts at the Best Friends Animal Society.
