Re: [Felvtalk] Questioning FELV diagnosis

Our Tigger was found as a tiny kitten (the vet thought 4 months in age but small due to dehydration and near-starvation). We had him tested for FeLV and he was negative. Five years later when he became sick after the stress of us bringing in another cat that bit him a lot, they tested him again

Hi Sheila, Thanks for your opinion. I'm thinking along the same lines. If it's not too late I am going to start her on the Prednisone tonight and hope for the best. On Wed, Dec 14, 2016 at 7:55 AM, Armstrong-Brown, Sheila DDS Timonium < sheila.armstrong-br...@ssa.gov> wrote: > I am sure the

I will keep everyone posted, Katherine. I'm hoping my hunch is correct that she doesn't have FELV but she's still very sick right now. On Wed, Dec 14, 2016 at 7:56 AM, Katherine K. wrote: > Randy, > > I'm sorry your baby isn't feeling well. What an unusual story you shared.

Re: [Felvtalk] Questioning FELV diagnosis

Randy, I'm sorry your baby isn't feeling well. What an unusual story you shared. Did your vet say anything about hemobartonella? That can cause anemia, but I'm not very familiar with it so I can't offer much more information or advice there. There is a Yahoo! group called Feline_Anemia. It was

[Felvtalk] Questioning FELV diagnosis

Our cat, Curly, is ten years old. We found her outside as a kitten and had her tested for FELV at that time. She was negative. She's been strictly an indoor cat since then and had no contact with any potentially infected cats. Three months ago, she wasn't acting like herself. Very lethargic and
