Right? What is the worst that can happen? Another cat gets FIV? SO? My Mom's cat Lucky lived with five other kitty siblings, he had FIV, no one else got it and he lived to be 16, However, our cat Shtinky did NOT have FIV and died of a stroke at 12, Frankie, also NON FIV died at 5-1/2, Miller, NON FIV died of Lymphoma at 14, and SuzieQ, also NON FIV died of cancer at 3. Therefore, this just shows to go ya that FIV is NOT a death sentence and should not preclude a kitty from getting a wonderful home.
