Stress, like calling, having kittens, even moving house ect can set the illness back off again. Though as breeders we are recommended to rehome the cat neutered on it's own if possible as it can be passed to kittens. Everything should be scrubbed down & washed. The problem you have with having other cats is that herpes can lie dormant, so you would'nt always know if they had it until they were ill themselves.
I really hope you get to the bottom of everything, whoever sold you the kitten is a disgrace in my eyes!!

Hello there
I`m not sure what to say to the gccf because there isn`t any reg number for her on the pedigree...i think its just a pedigree sheet that you can probably buy....its got `iams and Eukanuba` printed on the top. So i don`t think she is registered, and the names of the other cats on the pedigree may not even be related to her.
The vet mentioned `stress` so i suppose there is no way of knowing is there, whether my cats already had this and it `came out` because of the stress of introducing a new cat into the household?
I think that the fact that her telelphone number is now `unobtainable` when i ring it and there was no answer at her home when i called means she knew that this kitten wasn`t well and just wanted to get rid of it before it cost her money at the vets.
And she had another for sale too, so it isn`t just me that she has done this too. It makes me wonder how many people have experienced the same?
Oooo it makes my blood boil!!!
