Cats immunodeficiency virus
Meet this Pinto and Mia (Mia in the chair). Pinto and Mia live with my friends, Mia - Cat, Pinto - Cat.
Mia - friendly, but are usually cautious and unfamiliar side. Pinto most like to be stroked. He is very affectionate and constantly sitting in somebody's lap.
Mia Pinto and infected with HIV. Therefore, in the home of their hosts have a few features.
...
Cats with a positive response to the virus and weakened immune systems are more susceptible to various diseases. Everything like people, because this virus - cat analogue of human immunodeficiency virus. It is species-specific and are not transmitted to man. Between cats infection occurs, for example, when pairing or through the bite wound.
Mia and Pinto - not the first cat immunodeficiency virus living in the house of my friends. They host many years takes the cat with such a diagnosis from an animal shelter.
House - three-storey. On the ground floor live two cats are not infected with HIV. They lead a free life and go for a walk on the street.
Infected animals should be isolated from healthy to avoid the spread of the virus. So Mia and Pinto live in so-called "cat quarantine" on the second floor of the house.
The plate and says "Cat quarantine. Please, keep the door closed. Do not miss the cats. "This is an area of Pinto and Mia. On the street and on the first floor they can not walk.
Net is not closed the door, she divided staircase between the first and second floor, the cat can not jump over the railing.
Available cats have two floors and a large attic, and even a cat "tree" - homemade Climbing.
The pouch on the left of the door - another tool for cats. This cargo destined to the door is not closed and cats could go to the toilet.
However, there were cases when the goods have not helped. The fact that many guests habit closed bathroom door. So we had to do a cat door at the bottom.
And then there are the so-called cat "selector". On the ground floor used to live two cats, one of them I loved to eat. But many could not eat it.
Therefore, the owner fashioned a special shelf that can withstand the weight of a cat, the one that is less, and sinking under another. Food could get just leaping on the shelf. To adapting worked very well for many years, until the cat lived in the house :)
...
Immunodeficiency virus, which infected cats should not be confused with AIDS. Immunodeficiency virus can cause the disease called feline AIDS, but it does not always happen.
The owner was 4 cats (up Pinto and Mia), only one of them died from feline AIDS. All the rest died because they were old.
He had heard that the average life expectancy of a cat infected the virus is 2 years. However, his cat lived in total more than 14 years (even more than the average). All the cats he took to his nursery as adults.
Presumably, the figure is 2 year low, because usually the cats examined immunodeficiency virus only when they already show symptoms of AIDS.
Explanation of device "Selector»:
Board held on the magnet (round washer below the top board on the last photo). The magnet is installed so that the board can withstand the weight of light cat (also taken into account and the impact of the jump), but does not hold the weight of heavy. Adjustable it's just - it is necessary to choose the right place for fixing a metal plate on the bottom of the board. The lower area of her soprokosnoveniya magnet, the smaller the weight of the board maintains.
Tests were conducted using a bag of potatoes, filled according to the weight of cats.
Board bottom is further secured to the ceiling by a long elastic. The function of this gum to gently pull the magnet board after heavy cat upset her.
In practice: heavy cat jumped on board only 2 times - that it was enough to learn from the negative experience of the relevant lesson :) Only 2 years later she tried to repeat the jump - and again without success.
