Hi everyone. I'm new to this site and am looking for some advice. I have a feeling the advice will be "don't do it", but I need to ask anyway.
I adopted 3 Kittens from a shelter in Apr. (they are 8 months old now). It should have been 4 cats, however 2 days before we were to pick them up, I was informed that one, Max, had been diagnosed with FHV. He was not related to the kittens (he's 2), but was extremely friendly and we just fell in love with him. The kittens foster mom said that in a few months we could take Max home and things should be fine.
Well, he's still available for adoption, but he's still having flare-ups and continues to have goopy eyes, but is not getting a cold as much. My question is, should I bring Max into the home or should I just hope for the best for him and hope someone else adopts him? I'm just torn because I feel like he should be here (not sure if this is just my trying to save the world, one cat a at a time), but I also have 3 other cats to think about.
Any feedback would be helpful. I can't sleep over this.
