Re: [Felvtalk] Felvtalk Digest, Vol 6, Issue 12
I never know how to reply to these things either, but i am going to reply to both of the mail subjects at once right here. I have been doing rescue for over 10 years, and in that time i have learned to do much of the immediate run of the mill vetting myself. I have had my felv+ cat for almost 5 years now, so i have learned quite a bit about that as well, and it helps that's vet's office manager is on my board of directors. One thing i have learned is i alwaysvgetvhervto the vet as soon as i can if i cannot get a response from what i start her on. Formost cats i startvthem on clavamox,( or amoxi suspension) right away because it is broad spectrum and also treats mycoplasma On Sunday, September 21, 2014, felvtalk-requ...@felineleukemia.org wrote: Send Felvtalk mailing list submissions to felvtalk@felineleukemia.org javascript:; To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to felvtalk-requ...@felineleukemia.org javascript:; You can reach the person managing the list at felvtalk-ow...@felineleukemia.org javascript:; When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than Re: Contents of Felvtalk digest...

Re: [Felvtalk] Felvtalk Digest, Vol 6, Issue 12
That just mailed itself off. Lol. Cont... But my awesome Pawsome i have to give orbax to, because she had a bad reaction. Luckily, it wasn't an awful reaction and next day vet worked fine. So, if you were to start on something you picked a good drug. Lol. Anyway, i am lucky i live in an area with many vets around. As gor the LTCI, i am going to do the same thing. You will need a vet to consign you, though, and order your medication, as well as do periodic blood tests. That's the ticket. Lol. I have a friend in la who is already doing this and that's where i got the idea.

I have a cat with felv I have had her now for about 2 months, she is doing really good. After some argueing with the vet he finally agreed to put her on Interferon. They did both the Elisa and the IFA 2 mos ago and both were positive. I took her back today after the 60 days and the Elisa test came back positive again, is there any holistic treatments that any of you know about that would help me? Has anyone ever known a cat to get rid of the virus after the IFA test is positive too? Any information would be appreciated (she is also not showing any symptoms) Thank YOu _ Send e-mail anywhere.

I took Dixie to a holistic vet who did wonders for her quality of life. She lived 3 wonderful years and had everything If you have access to one, I would urge you to check it out. (Betty Boswell put her on several supplements that were great. Dr. Boswell was her first stop after the test results. She is doing well-kitten work with the two little boys Dixie sent after she left this earth). If not, I can give you phone numbers for two I know. They do phone consultations if you aren't in the area or may be able to send you to someone. Dixie got a lot of Vitamin C in ground up veggies I mixed with her (no grain) high quality food. She got a lot of protein too. She was on interferon too. Make very sure and pay attention to her teeth and mouth. The Royal Princess Kitty Katt (not FeLV+ but died of cancer) started teaching me to enjoy each minute with these lovely little friends and not dwell on the future. Dixie furthered the lesson, emphasizing the fact that we all die from something. The goal is to enjoy the time you have and to teach/love/help others. She certainly fulfilled her mission. Please do not dwell on what may happen. Enjoy this little love and give her everything you can. And learn from her. She found you for a reason.

Re: [Felvtalk] Felvtalk Digest, Vol 6, Issue 12
Marci, I have had very good luck holistically with my FeLV kitties by using Transfer Factor Plus. It is an immune booster and is very effective. A good diet is also of great importance. If you want more information on Transfer Factor, here is a link to an informational site. www.powerbod.com/2/karengriffith There is a link to the veterinary page on the right hand side list of page links. I use the human form called Transfer Factor Plus-Tri Factor formula. If you decide to try it, I find it easier to call the toll free number and talk to a human. The company's number is on the site. In answer to your question, I have had kitties test negative after quite a long period of time post initial testing. If you have any questions, feel free to give me a call at 740-992-5782.
