Frijole is one beautiful fluffy mini panther that is so easy to love. This sweet and playful boy loves to play with everyone including his siblings. This house panther would love to be adopted with one of his littermates (Winter, Aci, Windy, or Hazelnut).
Frijole’s mama is FIV positive and it is very common for FIV antibodies to be passed along to her kittens so Frijole has tested positive for FIV. It is important to understand that these tests look for the presence of the FIV antibodies but they do not look for the presence of FIV.
While maternal antibody transmission is common, transmission of the disease is extremely uncommon. It is recommended that Frijole be tested again in six months after maternal antibodies have worn off and a more accurate test result can be obtained. In most cases, kittens will retest negative, and be FIV-free.
