So sorry to hear about Casper. I have one cat with leukemia that became anemic
in September of last year. He is still holding his own. He does have
non-regenerative anemia so I asked how it is that his HCT isn't dropping if
he's not making more red blood cells. I guess the spleen and another
I am so sorry to hear about Casper. I do think sometimes the ones we think
become FeLV+ were already positive (like my kitty who the vet said probably
carried it in his bone marrow).
YES re the anemia! My niece rescued a FeLV+ adult cat almost 3 years ago.
She is a happy and healthy 13 lb girl!

Bless you and your family for helping all these kitties. I am so sorry for
your losses.
My Squeaky was also figured to be a carrier. He was symptom free for 22
years!

Our negative cats are due for their vaccinations this month. I let Buzz out
of his quaranteen room the first part of April of 2008. The others were
vaccinated through the month of March. Then again last year. Now I am
wondering if the vaccinations did any good at all.
You have a very intere
I'm so sorry to hear this. I've always mixed mine with no transmission. But
that was a personal choice.
I know some people on this list have successfully treated anemia. It depends on
what is the underlying cause. They give Doxy in the hopes it is Hemobart.
I hope for the best for you and Casper.
Hi,
I am rather new to this list, but wanted to ask Sue how long ago was it that
sweet Casper was vacinated for Feline Leukemia before she tested positive?
I am just curious as I am learning so much about this horrible disease. I
have been reading many posts since I joined in January and I j
Oh crap.
I remember how I felt a few months back when I found out that Bridget was
positive - her brother Chutney suddenly crashed and died (he, too, was anemic)
not even 5 weeks after testing negative on the snap test. I had both with my
cats, and while I suspect they had contracted the virus
Jeanne, you already received some good advise about feeding Scooter. The
Feline Assist Feeding group has some good files that will help you assist feed
Scooter. Here is the link.

I've found food to be the best appetite stimulant. Oft
My poor sweet Casper is FeLV+. So by making the decision to mix I have
condemned him. He is anemic and he is going on Doxycyclne and Prednosolone.
Has anyone ever heard of a cat that has anemia living longer then a few months?

There has been several cases of rabid bats in Ky. This is a
consideration. I have to ask what the odds are of a bat getting in
the house, then what are the odds of it biting Copper or Thomas then
what are the odds of it being rabid. Each person must decide. Ky
accepts titers by the way

So sorry to hear about your baby not feeling good.
I would get her in for some bloodwork ASAP.

Griseofulvin is the stuff that cannot be given to FIV cats. Causes
bone marrow supression leading to dangerously low white blood cell
counts.
Griseofulvin has a lot of side effects including anemia & liver
damage. I wouldn't use it for any cat unless nothing else worked.

Interferon worked great for us.
Try stinky foods (Fancy Feast, Solid gold tuna, etc). Good info at Feline
assisted feeding yahoo group about anorexia.
Can sprinkle tuna flakes on her food to stimulate appetite, too. WATCH FOR
DIARRHEA if you are trying new foods.
Important to keep her eating. Glad

Thank-you to all who responded. GREAT help! I loved the KY vet link and the
thoughts about a holistic remedy to be used if vaccinating. I talked to my
vet and he does have the purevax. He prefers the 3 year adjuvanted rabies
but will use the purevax. He also has the internasal distemper. He said it
I've used program in the past, too, & it worked wonders. Do be very careful
about the meds you give for ringworm. I know there is a liquid that is toxic to
FIV cats.
