Mitchell is a quiet and cuddly boy. He welcomes pets and likes to watch the other cats play. He will come over to play at times but is a calmer boy who would be happy with a calm household. 








Mitchell is loving the life now! He is still working on picking up



weight



now, but he needs it from his past life where he was deprived of food and shelter.











He is happy with a steady supply of food and love and once in a while catnip.











Any cat person knows just what an orange cat is! The best of the best!








Please note that Mitchell is FIV +.  Feline immunodeficiency virus  (FIV) . The primary mode of transmission for FIV is through bite wounds  from an infected cat. Casual, non-aggressive contact, such as sharing  water bowls or mutual grooming, does not appear to be an efficient route  of spreading the virus. As a result, cats in households with stable  social structures where housemates do not fight are at little risk of  acquiring FIV infections.  FIV-infected cats exist worldwide, but the  prevalence of infection varies greatly. In North America, approximately  2.5-5% percent of healthy cats are infected with FIV. Rates are  significantly higher (15 percent or more) in cats that are sick or at  high risk of infection. Because FIV is transmitted through deep bite  wounds, un-neutered male cats with outdoor access, especially those who  are likely to fight with other cats, are at the greatest risk for FIV  infection. However, it is important to realize that while it is  impossible to predict the survival of a given cat infected with FIV,  cats infected with FIV can live very normal, healthy lives for many  years if managed appropriately. Dogs and humans cannot catch it and it,  to repeat, is shared by deep bite wounds. (Cornell University College of  Veterinary Medicine)
