You know, I think that if there was a person you didn't like, and you handed them Wasabi Peas and a Vernor's ginger ale, and told them to inhale the smell of Vernor's through their nose and then take a bite of the Wasabi Peas and then exhale through their nose, you could kill them and totally get away with it.

I never knew this disease existed, but when I just called to schedule Stevie to get spayed, they asked if I wanted to have her tested for leukemia and/or AIDS.

Since she's not a gay male cat, I decided not to.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

Interesting.  I hadn't heard of that either.
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

Why not get her tested?  I would have.

Dude, now she can't tell her partners she's been tested!  Uncool!

Does she have sex with monkeys ever?

She's not going until next month. 

It only affects 2% of the population, and doesn't matter a whole lot unless they get sick.  If she gets sick, maybe then.  I can't afford a lot of tests for healthy cats.  If they're sick, I'll scrounge up the money for what they need (see:  eye removal surgery).

That's the FIV.  What about feline leukemia?

I had a male cat die from Feline AIDS. He was a beautiful cat and probably one of my most favorites.  When I got him as a kitten I thought he was a she so I named him Millicient.  Then when he developed a little more, I realized he was a boy so we changed his name...LOL

We used to have ads on TV about FIV in Indy all the time - it's supposed to be very common among strays in the Northwest Territory states.
