I spoke to Caspurr's breeder

Wasn't your vet going to contact her vet to see if her cats had been treated for it? It boggles the mind that she's supposedly unfamiliar with it..... I think I smell the proverbial rat here.....

But my vet never got an answer. I said my vet would like to answer any questions she may have but there wasn't really any interest.

Wouldn't the other kittens in the litter have been affected too?

Yes, Mags. If one had it then the chances are that they all had it. However, not all calici virus carriers show symptoms. In fact some can carry and shed the virus but never appear to be ill.

I can't believe that a breeder of 15 years has never heard of calici though - that cannot possibly be true. Whether or not she has ever had it in her house is irrelevant, she would have heard of it.

I'd be tempted to call her again in a day or so Jac and see what her "research" has shown.

I will do Charlie. I thought she may have called me back today. There again she may be contacting all the other kittens owners to see how there cats are. There again probably not.
There again there's alot of if's but's and maybe's
