Say hello to Gomez! The only boy from the Addams Family trio, this little spitfire is all legs and energy. He loves to play with any toy you give him, has a fantastic appetite and is an all-around love bug to anyone who he comes in contact with. 
Gomez and his siblings have been in foster care since they were only 3-weeks old, and are now ready to go on to their furever home! He is fully litter trained, up to date on all shots, and open to eat whatever food you give him. 

Gomez is FIV+ as of this time, but is awaiting a retest in the first week of the month. It's quite possible that he will re-test negative at that time, as kittens can have false positives from their mums antibodies. Even if he is FIX+, this doesn't mean he needs to be treated any differently! FIV stands for Feline Immundeficiency Virus. FIV cats are at a higher risk for developing illness, many of them live very long lives just as long as a non-infected cat. A 2010 Canadian study compared the lifetimes of 39 FIV positive cats with those of 22 FIV negative cats. They found that there was no difference in survival time among the 2 groups. FIV is only transferable through deep bite wounds- it is not transferrable by sharing water bowls, grooming or common contact with shared surfaces. So he can happily live with other furry brothers and sisters!! 

We'd be happy to answer any questions or concerns you have about it!
