err to the side of caution and say get him in asap as that's definitely
worriesome.

Just saw Avaykn's email as I was writing this. I have the opposite problem
- pale gums.
One of my positive kittens Terence has started looking/feeling a little
skinny and his usually short sleek fur has a more raggedy look to it. I

I agree with Lee. A few spoonfuls of pate are not enough if she has stopped

accurate. PCR results seemed to take longer than the IFA but I've
