I think it just means she carries the virus (not disease) but doesn't
get sick.

One of the ladies in Iowa to whom I spoke mentioned the possibility
that Binxy may only be a carrier of the disease since she is four yrs.
old and healthy.
So, is there any way (other than the passage of time) to definitively
determine whether she is just a carrier?
And, am I correct in the assumption that being a carrier only would
give her the same life expectancy as any other cat who does not carry
this virus? Or can a cat convert from being just a carrier to being
actively infected for whatever reason?---just trying to get my facts
straight.
Thanks. Caroline
