Come over to the FIV group at
http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/FIVCats2/?yguid=11572739
Even if she is FIV+ it is likely she will live to be an old lady of a cat and
never show any symptoms at all. But the notation you mention doesn't make any
sense to me.

I was shocked last night, going thru old papers, to see a comment
written on Momcat's notes in 2003, made by the vet who tested all six of my
ferals for FeLV and FIV. The chart said that Momcat had (alone of the six)
tested negative for FELV/FIV but the asterisked comment said that she POSSIBLY
was FIV POSITIVE. I think that the news that the other 5 had tested FeLV
positive must have put this "possibly FIV positive" comment right out of my
head.
Anyway, now my Q is: how can a cat test FIV neg but "possibly" be positive in
reality.
What symptoms might she show now, 3 years on?
Can you guys recommend a website in case she is positive. (Because she's
feral, it will probably be a couple of weeks before I can catch/have her
tested.)
Thanks
