Hello and welcome to the group Manda. I've had quite a few FelV
positive cats over the years, as I'm a rescuer too. I have 15 rescued
cats at home and 10 more in my cageless cat sanctuary in town. Some
of my cats lived many years with FelV, but some died young. Mostly
the kittens. Kittens don't
Welcome to the group Holly. You'll learn some very valuable things
here. I do rescue work and have 15 rescued cats at home plus more in
my cageless shelter in town. Some of the cats in my shelter are FelV
positive, but seem to be doing well in spite of it. FelV supresses
the cat's immune system
So sorry about Daisy. I had a brother sister FeLV positive. I lost the sister
about a year ago to lymphoma, but the brother is doing well, so every cat is
different in how they react to this virus.
I don't do anything special except feed them well. They get Blue Buffalo dry

I would highly recommend adding CoQ10 to their food, keeps their gums, heart,

GNC has the vegetarian formula that is powder in capsules, open capsule and
sprinkle/mix into food (tasteless!). Use between 30-50 mg
Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome. I look forward to learning from all
of you. Holly

can be handled, all except for two who are feral. I have great cat appeal -
most cats warm up to me after a few feedings.

Hi all,
I'm new to the group. I do Cat rescue for a Northern Virginia group and
took in 3 Persian Mix bottle babies (one female, two male) in November.
They were all scheduled for adoption at 8 weeks and the first one out tested
FeLV+. All adoptions fell through. They are gorgeous and
Chris,
Since the kittens are now 10 weeks old now, how old were they when they were
first tested? And how much time elapsed between the ELISA and the IFA
tests? This might mean something...this might mean that maybe they're not
really positive. Always a chance for hope. Finding homes, not so
The answer is yes. I would try to find adoptive homes but also look into
sanctuaries. Obviously adoptive homes would be better and there's a chance.
Not a very high chance they could get a home but at least being persian mixes
they might can find a home with someone who has FeLV + cats. It
