Hi to those with experience with the FIP disease i had a question.
My situation is that i have a one year old kitten right now and recently i found a stray that has decided to call my garage his home ^__^. Anyways me and my brother were considering allowing the stray to start coming into the house. But i am worried about my kitten's health. The stray has been taken to the vet and has been tested negative for FELV and has tested positive/negative for FIP. When i asked what my vet meant by this she said that this meant the test results were basically unclear and that it is uncertain whether or not he has FIP. These tests were conducted close to a month ago and the stray has been in good health lately except for fleas.
My question here would be should i allow my kitten to come in contact with the stray? and what are the chances that he could have the FIP virus and transmit it to my kitten.
PS: also i am planning on getting another kitten in about 3 months
