Everyone who goes into the shelter is tested for FeLV & FIV. I got a lovely abandoned lynx point siamese from the people a week ago, and Clarence tested positive for FIV. :( The good news is he's so handsome and young, he'll be up for adoption despite this. He has been roaming around the area for several months, and hasn't passed FIV on to any of the others.....to date anyway. :rolleyes: There are a few toms these people feed, but won't claim as one's born in their house! :mad: :mad: :mad:
