We had a black, flat-faced cat in front of our house, so we took him/her and gave it some food and water. We examined it, and we think it may have had AIDS. My family has cat-allergies, so we can't possibly take it in, and if we bring it to the humane society, and it does have AIDS, they'll put it down. If it doesn't, they probably will, anyways, with the rough shape it's in at the moment.
It had a huge gash of missing skin on its belly, sores under its fur, probable fleas, goo coming out of its eyes, mouth and nose, its hair all messed up, (but that may just be from being a stray), and some strange skin by its gash that really makes you want to avoid it.
Went to the humane society, and gave it to them. They didn't even check if it had FIV; they just took in its face with the goo, and the gash on its belly and decided it wasn't worth it. They didn't even tell us they were going to euthanize it, but rather said, "Sorry for your loss."
The cat was probably the ugliest cat I've ever seen, with its fur a complete mess, and its face the flattest face I've ever seen, (it had to put its entire head in a food bowl or a water bowl to get anything; when it stopped drinking, its entire head would be dripping water), and its tail looked like a duster, but I could definitely see why someone would've wanted it for its attitudes.
It also use to be a house cat, because its paws were de-clawed, and the tail recently trimmed.
