I have a few questions and hopefully some words of
hope and comfort about sharing your life with an FeLV
positive cat.
My cat, Buddha, tested positive for FeLV 8 years ago.
At the time I had him tested he was not sick or
showing any signs that he might be FeLV positive. He
had been vaccinated
Tonya,
I'm sorry about the kitty you found in the road and the horrible
experience you went through trying to save him. Your vet does seem to
be the one bright light in all this, (besides you of course). I don't

Tonya, it so humbles me and honors us all that you did the right - though
difficult - thing. But you did the right thing, and demonstrated to all

Janet,
As Terri and Tonya have already mentioned, many of us mix adult negs
that have been vaccinated with pos. It's a judgement call and of
course no matter what our success rate in doing this is, there's no
safer protection for your elderly cat than to not mix them together.
That's what mos

Hi, Is your cat vaccinated? Have you talked with your vet about this. I think it's HIGHLY unlikely that a 15 year old cat would 'catch' felv from a positive cat. Has your cat been exposed to any other cats ever? If he has he's probably already been exposed. tonyaTerri Brown <[EMAIL PROT
Hi,
If your 15 year old negative is vaccinated, it's unlikely that he will get
FeLV, especially if you can keep them separate for a while until they get used
to each other's scents.
I mostly lurk on the list lately, and am FeLV free at the moment, so I will
let other list members who are
Thanks Gloria, I replied to the group I found it on and to the person who posted it as well. I've got to get to bed soon so it will probably be tomorrow evening before I can get any more info. Maybe there's a rescue that could help her out. Maybe I could send her a 'Christmas gift' if this i
Hello,
Two weeks ago I took a cat in that had been abandoned. Today, I took
her to the vet and found out she was tested as positive for feline
leukemia. I also found out today that she is pregnant.
I have a 15 year old cat that does not have leukemia. Thus, I cannot

Living in Jersey where I do, I see lots of animals on the side of the
road: cats and deer mostly. But occasionally there are dogs, geese,

I don't know, I think I might talk to her about not being ready to take
on the emotional hazards that come with the responsibility of holding
another life in her hands. (I don't know if I'd put it that way!). She
may just go get another kitty somewhere else. It sounds like she's in
such pain
Absolutely - everything that you said - you expressed it so well. So
frustrating, and hard to evaluate the adopting woman's emotional
state. And I end up with such a duality of feelings. She mentioned
something about wanting to consider another kitty. I'm just going to
ignore her and not c

Gloria,
First my condolences on losing Chrissy this way! It's so frustrating
when people think they are doing the "right thing", but don't bother
contacting someone who they should know would be able to give them
advice. I think you may be right, this had more to do with the
