Well, the results are back. Hobbes' titres are below 160 which is good, but Spike and Whisper's titres are 610
. The vet says we should (ideally) separate the cats, and then test 3 months down the road to see whether the "oldsters" titres go down. If they do, then we can probably get another kitten.
As we see it, this separation is going to be nigh on impossible! If we were a breeding cattery, with individual pens, then it would be do-able, but I can only see this stressing out all three cats (which is supposed to be one way that FIP develops from the coronavirus) and Hobbes is already lonely without Alice, so would be really sad without the others. The vet isn't sure whether the older cats have raised titres because they have been in contact with Alice and their immune systems are reacting this way because they are weaker (being older) or whether one of them gave Alice the virus and it then mutated into FIP.
What ARE we going to do? Does anyone have any advice, please?
