🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

I am a special cat because I am a FIV carrier. But don't worry, it doesn't stop me from being a lifelong companion. I am a very social cat who loves cuddles. It's important to know that my illness can be transmitted to other cats, so I need to be the only cat in the family, or have a friend/girlfriend who is also FIV positive. Adoption fee is a donation including neutering, identification, initial vaccination, internal and external parasite control. Click here, pre-adoption questionnaire.

Je suis une chat un peu spécial car je suis porteur du virus du FIV. Mais ne vous inquiétez pas, cela ne m’empêche pas d’être un compagnon de toute une vie, je suis un chat très sociable qui adore les caresses. Il faut savoir que ma maladie peut être transmissible à d’autres chats, il faut donc que je sois le seul chat de la famille, ou alors avoir un copain/copine également porteur du FIV.

About 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben

What life with 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben looks like

🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at SPA du Gers in France.

A young adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract, and shelters often cover sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and a passport. Confirm with the shelter what is included. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. SPA du Gers handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask SPA du Gers whether they will for 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: SPA du Gers lists 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben as vaccinated and neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by SPA du Gers, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask SPA du Gers about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know 🆘️ FIV 🆘️ ♂️ Ben and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
