PYGMY is a darling fluffy boy with a beautiful coat. He is extremely friendly. He has lived with small dogs in his previous home. Pygmy is a year old and he weighs 9.5 lbs.

Pygmy tested positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) which is a life-long disease that keeps his immune system lowered. However, FIV+ cats can live long, healthy lives just like FIV- cats. They can even be housed together, which is explained in the link provided. You can find more information on this virus at https://resources.bestfriends.org/article/fiv-cats-faqs-feline-immunodeficiency-virus.

Pygmy will need to be a TOTALLY INDOOR CAT.
