Our Lucy girl just lost her playmate Gus to FIP a week ago. Lucy is 7.5 months old, VERY playful, loving, curious and super smart. She did go for a wellness check after Gus passed away from FIP. The vet explained that although Lucy could get the precursor feline virus that causes most cats to get a cold, unfortunatley some random mutation and bad luck for cats like Gus, causes a small percent to die. The vet explained that Lucy was very healthy and there was no cause for concern for Lucy.
However, I do know that she could carry the precursor virus, and I wouldn't want to test whether another kitten would get only a little sick or a lot sick
I emailed my vet to ask whether we have to wait a certain period or if we can maybe do a blood test or something.
Does anyone have any experience with this specific thing? Thanks!
