Hidden Acres Exotics Amanda Halvorson: breeder of exotic shorthair cats as well as birds. Breeding and selling cats with FIP/Feline coronavirus/ Arlington Washington
In July 2016, I purchased a kitten from a breeder, Amanda Halvorson, who runs Hidden Acres Exotics. Her website lists Seattle but her actual home/place of business is Arlington, Wa. Our kitten died this week of Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP) which is a fatal virus without a cure. It is contracted from other cats. Our cat is exclusively indoors and had never been exposed to other cats since being with her littermates and cat parents. I have since learned that there have been other concerns from previous purchasers- 1 in 2014 who purchased a kitten from her and it since died of FIP. Other concerns from previous buyers include kittens with ringworm. Ours also had ringworm which was later treated. Unfortunately FIP is not treatable and we no longer have our sweet kitty.
