Another of Spencer's symptoms I failed to mention is head shaking. He's
not doing it a lot, just enough for me to notice. I usually think ear
mites when I see someone shake their head. Spence's ears are clean.
The vet thought possibly something neurological, (she's so upbeat). Do

Nina, Patches, who is FeLV+, tested positive for FIV also on the in-house
test when last tested. At the shelter, she had tested negative for FIV, I
think. Unless you got IFA done, it might not be true.

They did run the felv twice, both times of course on ELISA. When I
bring him in for another cbc, I'll have them retest using IFA. I'm not
sure when I should be thinking of bringing him back in. The vet wants
to do another test, but she didn't give me a specific time frame, (she

Clavamox itself is a combination of 2 antibiotics. I knew that! See
what a mean about my mind going? I'm going to do the retest on both
felv and fiv. I had always suspected he had fiv. I usually test when
they're neutered, with Spence, the vet forgot to test and I hadn't
brought him back
I'll check with my vet's office and ask them if they are using Antech.
Thanks guys,

Thanks Diane. How are you
Allergies can cause head shaking. Have you changed ANYTHING recently? Food?
Treats? Litter? Detergent? ANYTHING in your home?

I wrote that the Elisa FIV test is wrong 80% of the time, but meant
20%. I seem to have transposed the percentages.
I have learned a lot from the mistakes I made with positives early on, but
most of my mistakes resulted in death (the foster I wrote about, and heavy

the false-positive rate for the snap test for FIV is much higher than 20%--closer to 40 at a conservative rate. no sanctuary or group that works with FIVs will consider a cat positive without a western blot test.

There is no need for you to stick up for Linda. I understand completely
why it isn't possible for any shelter or sanctuary to go to the lengths
that most of us private guardians and small rescues do. Anyone that
gives these guys a chance at life is okay in my book. Giving them the
Jimmy's story is very sad. I'm so sorry that happened to the two of
you. We just can't allow ourselves to second guess what is in the
past. We can't know what would have happened if we took a different
course than we did. How can you possibly know what the outcome might
have been? You did what
