I have 7 cats rangig in age from 18 months to 12 years. All are healthy. 2, Annie (5years) and Nitnoy (around 2 years) are positive. They have been together for 4 years and my vet told me that as long as I keep the negatives vaccinated there should be no problem. They all continue o be healthy with sleek, shiny coats, clear eyes, noses and ears. They are all full of energy. In short, no problems. If your other cats are at least 2 years and are up to date on their shots, I don't see any problems. Only Tiger may have one as h is a kitten, but if you feed good quality food, give him medical care when needed and give him lots of love, I wuld keep him . If you have hd him for 2 days minimum, he has already got you and yu wont be able to let him go. ---- katskat1 <katsk...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have 2 positives, one of them over 12 years old, the other about 2 > or 3.
