Also an owner taking on a FIV cat will have to be sure that they have the money to cope with the higher vet bills, which are more likely to occur with a FIV cat versus a healthy clear cat.

Jenny, I am glad you saw this (I was actually going to contact you directly) you were always very good at helping me with my articles.

I feel that as long as we (as a rescue) are open and honest with the public, the decision should be up to them to choose to adopt an FIV + cat or not. My main goal is to help overcome some of the fear that goes with this diagnosis.
