We have recently picked up a stray cat. When we took it to the clinic to get it's Lukemia and Rabies shots they also tested it for feline A.I.D.S. The results came back positive a few days later. He is the sweetest cat and is very loving. He is about 4 years old. Black with a white chest and belly. Looks like a manecoon. He is fixed. We cannot keep him because of the other cats that we have. They are not so friendly and I don't want to risk them get into a fight. Right now the cat is and has been seperated from all of the others but can't stay that way for too much longer, it's just not fair to him. I would love to find it a good home.

Maybe some rescue groups know of other AIDS+ cats.  AIDS cats can also live with dogs.  Good luck.

Can't other cats catch the Virus from him? That would be my concern, Also I seem to remember when I was much younger that my older brother had a black kitten named Bear who came down with it and it was very sad to see it suffer from the virus so he had to finally put her down. Did the vet say how much time he has left to live?
My prayers are with you and the poor baby :o(

Aids cats can infect other cats, but an AIDS cat with a dog is okay.  AIDS cats can live together.  I've heard of people having AIDS cats with non-AIDS cats--supposedly safe unless the regular cat is bitten.   YIKES, who'd want to take the risk.
