Alley Cat Allies says there is no difference and they advocate not testing ferals in TNR situations unless the cat is ill. They also don't euthanise unless the cat is ill, if they are somehow accidentally tested and tests +. Now around here they will tell you that is irresponsible and you will be shunned if you advocate that course.

It depends greatly on the area the studies were done in, so you will se a lot of variances in the numbers depending on the source. I would suspect it's no more common in ferals (true, wild, unsocialized cats) than in free-roaming domestics (strays, owned cats allowed to go outside, escaped housecats).
