I am a foster for the local spca. I picked up a mommy cat, and 4 rweek old kitties that were combo tested at my request, so I am not bringing anything home to my indoor only cats. Well, when I got there, an extra, not tested kitty was with them, that apparently doesn't have a mommy, and this one nurses him.
My question is: if this kitty is infected with anything would he be showing symptoms?All kitties and mommy seem healthy, good appetitie, pooping and peeing.
I don't want to chance an infection to my cats (mommy et al are separated in the basement) and I can return them if I want to. I don't want to over react, but I don't want to be stupid either. I would like to make introductions in a few weeks, most likely they will be here a month or more, and mommy could become a foster after kitties are adopted.
what do you think?
