Solstice was born in December of 2020. She is FIV positive and was erroneously thought to have FeLV, so she was isolated from other cats for a very long time. When she came to PAWS, she was retested and found to be FeLV negative and only suffering from FIV. It is safe for her to be in a living situation with non-FIV-positive cats. (for more information about FIV+ please go to: https://www.vet.cornell.edu/departments-centers-and-institutes/cornell-feline-health-center/health-information/feline-health-topics/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv)
She is very friendly and affectionate, but her isolation caused a lapse in her manners. She nips when she doesn’t get the attention she desires but is learning that is inappropriate behavior. She is very sweet and gets along pretty well with other kitties.
