I agree.  I would release back to the colony UNLESS this cat shows signs of taming down, in which case I would try to place it in a home.  If it is still truly feral I would release.  Feral cats are tough.  If this cat is positive, the colony has already been exposed.
 
Is someone caring/feeding this colony?

Release to the colony is acceptable to me in this case. And here's why MC. As another
cat from this colony has already tested positive and been put down, it means the
entire colony has already been exposed to FELV, so releasing this one cat back to it
wont make any difference at all as far as exposure goes. Cats that are going to catch
the FELV already have from other positive cats in the colony.

I collect KMR kitten formula labels for Bazil, a 3 yr old special needs cat who must
live on a liquid diet for the rest of his life.
Bazil's caretaker collects labels and sends them to KMR, where they add up until she
earns a free can of formula!
PLEASE save your KMR kitten formula labels for Bazil!
If you use KMR, even just one can, please email me for the NEW address to send them
to!

Does your cat have chronic diarrhea that does not respond to treatment, or has your
cat been loosely diagnosed as IBD?
Have you tested for Tritrichomonosis? The test is new, the new drug makes it curable.
Ask me today how you can test for Trich!
