Notes from Heartland Humane Society of Missouri

Charm was living outside and came to Heartland very scared and stressed. Her mouth was in very bad decay so she was also in pain. Charm was seen by our vet who did a full mouth extraction, relieving her pain and allowing her to focus on the perks of being an indoor kitty.

Charm took a couple of months to warm up to her foster mom, but once trust was gained, her sweet and loving personality came through. She now loves attention and can eat food just fine.

Charm is spayed, microchipped, tested negative for FeLV, has been flea and parasite treated and is current on vaccinations. She did test positive for FIV. FIV kitties can live a normal, long life as long as they are kept indoors and given medical treatment if early signs of illness are shown. Their immune system is not as strong so illness needs to be treated early. FIV kitties can live with non-FIV kitties just fine as long as they are not aggressive, as FIV can be transmitted through a deep bite that draws blood. FIV kitties do not require any daily meds or special food. Charm can eat normal cat food and is especially drawn to wet food. She doesn't seem to mind cat friendly dogs. HHS12989LH
