Since the vet is not worried, why should you? I thought about that when I took Annie in.

Thank you Lorrie,
So happy I joined this group.
I’ll keep the cat for a week, spoil him, not mix him with Other cat’s, And clean well after, The room will be left empty for 7 days after.
However, I won’t do this again,
Because I have other people’s cats in separate room and Won’t go through this again! ☺️☺️ I’ll even change my clothes when I go in and out, But sure that is NOT NECESSARY.
IF it was just my cat’s, I have three of my own, I wouldn’t be so neurotic. 😊
