Jackson is a charming young cat who is FIV positive, but ready to thrive in a loving home. He is neutered, housetrained, and up-to-date on his vaccinations. FIV+ cats can live full, happy lives and can even coexist with FIV-negative cats as long as they are spayed/neutered and get along well. Jackson will need a family committed to monitoring his health, offering him a safe and enriching environment.
