Re: calicivirus

Some vets do suggest swabs/blood tests for reasons only known to them - usually financial. They do not need to have seen symptoms to suggest it. The swab could have been a test for any number of viruses, it was just that calici came back positive.

As I said before, what vet would put a cat with flu symptoms under anaesthetic for a non emergency procedure.
