Oh i love all of Nature. I feed outdoor ferals as well.

I'm not familiar with FIP so thank you for enlightening me.

Our FIV+ boy lived outdoors for nearly 6 years. We'd tried to bring him indoors a couple of years ago, but my (then) senior rescue girl absolutely was not sharing her "territory." She departed peacefully of old age for the Rainbow Bridge in July, after a wonderful life with us for 14 years, so he is back inside now and doing very well.

Thank you for your rescue work and for sharing the information.
