That sort of was my biggest worry... But not that my 10 cats who were

but that the new kitty was in a shelter and with her immune system might

I said I would take her so the appointment was changed to spay and the
vet gave her a very strong health report after that...
She came home on Sat. and is in isolation cage here but still doing fine...
