I first came here because I had a kitten test faint pos. She and all her siblings later tested negative.

We had 2 of 5 test a faint positive at our shelter. 2 weeks later all tested negative. The first test was either not accurate or they fought it off.

It's a touchy thing to mix fosters with felv kitties, but since the fosters are all littermates, and have been exposed to each other in the most intimate way, I don't see any reason why they should be kept apart at this point. I would wait until your personal cats have been vaccinated though. The fact that only one of four is testing "faint" positive is a very good sign. I'm hoping that it just means that traces of mom's antibodies are still present in his blood work and that he isn't truly pos at all. Please keep us informed about all your babies, Nina Barbara Oberst wrote: > Hi Wendy, > > Thanks for your reply.
