This is a courtesy post for a lady who is very ill and must find a home for her cat, Daisy.
Daisy was a stray who was fixed during a trapping project and has an ear tipped ear. The maintenance people later trapped Daisy and took her miles away to get rid of her and some of the other cats. Daisy found her way back home and showed up at the window looking for her family. The lady let her in and she has stayed inside ever since.
Daisy is a gorgeous long-haired tortoiseshell cat. Her hair is so soft. It is like little bunny fur. She is about 3-4 years old. She is fixed. She has had her vaccines updated, been microchipped, and treated with flea preventative. She did test positive for FIV or feline immunodeficiency virus.
Cats with FIV can live very long and happy lives. They cannot pass the virus on to other cats except by deep bites or from nursing moms passing the virus to their babies. Daisy has lived with two other cats, including O, for two years and both of them are negative. FIV positive cats can live with negative cats with no fear of passing it on to the other cats.
A good article about FIV positive cats is below:

Daisy is a little shy at first, but once she has warmed up to you, she is very loving. She is good with other cats and would be fine with cat savvy children.
