Thanks Gloria--- you mix yours--- but you say they're "indoors", meaning they don't come into contact with unknown cats who may have Felv. Ok, so next Q, and this time it's pertinent to my own dilemma:
Is your thinking that your healthy cats have successfully stayed neg while living alongside your positives. BUT if you introduce a new FeLV (or if they came into contact ouside with a positive) that might change--they might contract FeLV that's a different strain?? I ask because I have one negative living with my one positive, away from the other negs. I worry about fostering another FeLV in case the neg *becomes* positive thru the new cat. (I'm also harboring a tiny hope that either the pos cat may have become neg in recent months OR his July 2004 test may have been wrong---he has always seemed so healthy while with me...(he was in the hospital before he came to me but was reported not to be positive then.)
