I think my vet doesn't like breeders and she thinks that the source IS the breeder. I will never know the source. My breeder did call Monday night and we spoke about Miley's health and at the time, I didn't know that Miley was going to test positive. I agree that Miley is healthy except for the colon issues and she is being treated for her problem. I will probably not have the others tested. Just wait for the annual visit and see if they are healthy. There is a vaccine for FIP but the vet doesn't think it does much. Rather a waste.
I am going to keep a very close eye on Miley and the others and keep all other cats from them. Some articles I have read say that most cats are exposed and never actually get FIP and I am thinking, yes, that's my Miley, exposed by she doesn't have it.
The bottom line is that I will keep her (them healthy) as long as I can but I will not put them through any end-stage illness, FIP or anything. As soon as they are uncomfortable...... that is one thing I can do for them.
So here's to their health and welfare and I am going to think on the positive side. Millie, my vet, is rather negative or overly cautious I should say.
I am home now and Miley seems fine to me. She is eating and hopping around just as usual. I have had a difficult time trying to catch her to pill her. She has caught on now! The little devil.
