Description:

DOB appx 2008, DSH greyish-silver mackeral tabby tuxedo. Neutered male / front declaw.  Bailey is FIV+ and it could be from exposure to another cat (or from his mom) or from a vaccine. FIV is not a big deal as long as the cat is healthy! See the Cornell University website for more info or links on the Helpful Information page on our website. It is only passed via mating and fighting (bloody fighting not casual play fighting). Since they don't mate for "fun" after neutering, that is not an issue. Bailey is not aggressive so as long as he is with nice non-aggressive kitties, the virus will not have a chance to spread. It is not spread thru food sharing.

Bailey is VERY friendly and gets along fine from day one, he doesn't hiss or spit at any situation. Amazing!!!  He likes to greet you with a "meow".  So he is a little vocal.
 
We realized Bailey has Stomatitis which is a mouth disease. This makes Bailey unadoptable, as his outcome is questionable (some cats do ok and some do not).
Recently a visitor was here who let Bailey out of the house. Now he likes hanging outside, and even declawed, he's a hunter, big time. Lizards, moles, the works! Ugh...
Bailey has now had his mouth surgery. All his teeth had to come out, so he's the toothless hunter! He tried to get a mole the other day but it kept slipping out of his toothless mouth :)  It was all slobbery, poor thing. We tried to herd it back out to the yard but I think it was too shocky to make it.
Bailey is doing well after his surgery. We have him on a daily  maintenance medicine to reduce inflammation, we will slowly wean him off this.
