Hi Guys,
I went to make some blood tests to one cat that I fostered and will b adopted overseas in 2 weeks, but they required FIV - FELV tests. So together with him I took a cat I adopted a year ago, an adult male.
The new fostered was negative
My cat came positive to FIV
Tests were done with a stick, like a pregnacy test stick not in a lab.
Right now I live in a two story house and my other cats are separated from this cat anyway... where all the fosters are.
I've read that is only transmitable by deep bites?
We are planning on selling the house and move somewhere smaller... if this day comes he'll have to be with my other cats who are not so fond of him... so now I am really affraid of a fight between them
Does anybody have FIV cats with non-FIV cats together ? how does it work ?
I know he can have a long life, my concern is purely about getting contageous.
The other two cats have been vaccinated for FIV and FELV too... are the vaccines really protective ?
Thank you very much for your suggestions
