Lil Bit Tabby Medfield, MA

Lil Bit is such a sweet, playful and silly cat. He's approximately six years old and came to the Shelter after he was abandoned in an apartment when his owner moved away. He loves attention from people and makes the most of his out-of-cage time by playing with toys, lying in the sun and bird watching. When it isn't his turn to be out of the cage he will roll on his back and do everything to divert attention away from the other cats in an attempt to persuade our volunteers to let him out. He really is a clown and quite amusing.

Although he checked out at the veterinarian as healthy, Lil Bit is FIV+ and should either be the only kitty in his new home or live with a compatible cat. FIV is spread to other cats only through deep bite wounds and can not be spread to people or dogs. FIV+ cats can live long and healthy lives if kept indoors, fed a high-quality diet and brought to the vet for regular check-ups. You can learn more about it on the Cornell Vet School's website: http://www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/health_information/brochure_fiv.cfm
