Hi, I’m Scuba Steve! I love humans and attention from humans. I’m a sweet fellow but I should tell you upfront that I am FIV positive. FIV is a virus that only cats can get (it does not infect humans) and it is usually spread through cats biting or fighting each other. Eventually, it may make me ill but right now I am a healthy, friendly boy. I have no symptoms at all, but I should definitely go to a family that has no other cats or if you already have cats that are FIV positive, that could be fine as well! FIV positive cats can live for years and years without any extra medications or care. Just feed me healthy food and bring me for my regular checkups and I will be just fine! They say I might have a more difficult time finding a family but I try to stay positive. I’m a friendly, handsome boy and I know that I will find love. Come meet me and you’ll see for yourself!
