Summary
In de regio Drechtsteden is een sterke toename van katten besmet met FIV (kattenaids), een virus dat het afweersysteem van katten aantast. Stichting Dieren Steun ontdekte de besmettingen na meldingen van slecht genezende bijtwonden bij katten. Tests in één straat toonden aan dat alle drie geteste zwerfkatten positief waren. De organisatie roept katteneigenaren op hun dieren vaker te laten castreren om verdere verspreiding tegen te gaan, omdat besmette katten enorm lijden onder de ziekte.
