My crew of born-in-a-brush-pile kitties acted like that at first. They were
7-8 weeks old when we brought them into our house. We had them quarantined
in our bedroom, got a positve FELV test, and kept them in there until we
could run a confirming test 3 months later, and get our adult kitty
Hi there
My name is Emily and I have three cats, Moses (Felv +) Jeremiah and Samson
(status yet unknown).
I just found out that Moses is + and he's quite sick. the doctor put him on
prednesone and doxycline...
He's not eating and he's quite thin.
The dr wants to put him to sleep.
Get Nutrical- either from your vet, or a lot of pet stores have it- just ask
them for it. It's a high calorie supplement for cats. You need to be giving
this to him. If he likes it enough, he may just lick it off your fingers.
Most cats do like the taste of it. But to get the maximum
Folks on this list much more knowledgable than me will help. But, how old are
they? Have they always been together? What does the vet say is wrong with
Moses? FELV itself is not what is making him sick—what he likely has is any
one a number of conditions that FELV cats are more prone to.
Hi, Emily --
I'm sorry Moses is so sick. As you can see, you're already getting lots
of good ideas on how to treat him. One important thing is, is your vet
is willing to work with you to help Moses get better? I hope the fact
that he's given you drugs for him is a good sign in that regard.

Important to get nutrition in him immediately.
Start with AD which is easily syringed and high calories.
I would keep him
Me again. Getting to an internal medicine specialist saved Isabella's life.
Wonder if you have one nearby?

One of my babies, Monty, was diagnosed at 9 months old. He was incredibly ill
and the vet didn’t think he would make it and wanted me to put him to sleep as
well. I wasn’t ready to give up, so I went to another vet. 3 years 3 months
later, Monty is still with me and have never been sick
