I would imagine you have given Mama all her shots regualrly, and both FIV and distemper is included in those (as far as I know, in France I know for sure, probably here too) and since Samantha is a pure-bred kitten (Birman, I'm guessing from a breeder?) there is little chance she has FIV and probably not distemper either. If you got her from a shelter, there's no telling what she may have picked up from other (sometimes feral) cats there, but the chances are still very slim. Especially with FIV the virus is not airborn, and the shelters keep the cats separated so no wound/saliva/blood should have been exchanged at all.
