It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you that I lost my Romeo today to
lymphoma. I write not out of grief but to encourage all the newbies who
wonder whether they can hang on with a FELV positive, whether they know
enough to take care of them, whether they should mix, etc. And the
Dear Christine,
I am so sorry to hear that it was Romeo's time to leave you.
Thank you for sharing Romeo's story with us - it is so inspiring.
Sleep soft, dear Romeo...
You are in my thoughts prayers.

Chris, thank you for telling us Romeo's story. He's surely telling all the
Bridge kitties a similar story, but it's all about how great YOU are and how he
trained you into a loving mommy. Hugs to you.

Chris, I'm so sorry your Romeo had to leave. I know he loved his good life
with you and it was his time to go but it still just breaks my heart a bit
every time I read one of these emails.

Chris,
What a very moving and inspiring story you write of your sweet little Romeo.
What a vivid picture you paint--I can imagine him meowing like crazy as he
headed towards you and the food. I'm so very, very sorry that you've lost
him--I know how devastatingly quickly and suddenly it happens
oh, romeo, fly sweetly, little one! i'm so glad that you got to spend these
last five years with your mom and human family, and even the other
critters--even if they were a bit jealous.
thank you, chris, for sharing him with us, and for reminding us what a gift
these furones are.

Chris, I am so sorry to hear about your little Romeo. Thank you for sharing
his story. Of all the cats it so often seems like the FeLV+ ones are the
most special of all.

Hi Jane, Buzz is not doing well at all. Today I received the news that his
red blood cells have dropped from 22% last week to 18% Saturday. He is on
Doxycycline, Prednisolone and Leukeran but his blood cells are no longer
responding. I don't like the idea of putting him through blood
Dearest Chris,
What a wonderful tribute to Romeo. These special kitties give so much love
it's worth the heartache when they leave us. He is now happily romping in the
green meadows chasing butterflies with all our angels.

I remember Hideyo saying that often it seems like they will

I'll pray this happens for Buzz.

Well, the good news is that he is still eating. I just sat and played with
him with a toy for a little while and he is still showing interest. I've
moved his litter box up and put it next to my desk in the study so he

About 2 weeks ago I found this group when I was told a litter of kittens I
rescued from my alley was FeLV+. As it turned out, the Humane Society had made
a mistake - they are all negative.
In the few days I was asking questions everyone was so kind and so forthright -
