I agree about Preventing Stress whenever we can! I've chosen _not knowing_ for sure just because of that very thing - (stress of vet visits & testing) especially with the testing results being of question. I deep massage from head to toe - he loves his belly & chest, under his forelegs, toes -

The record does not specify the type of test done initially. The most recent test was done in house and a drop of blood was put in a solution to change color. It was very hard to see that it was positive. The vet thought it was negative, but a tech pointed out a faint blue line that meant

I have no idea. Was the test result wrong initially? My current vet thinks she was born with it or had it when we found her at 2 months. I would advise all cats be tested; people need to know if their cat needs extra care, but I am glad we did not know. Had we known, we would not have kept

Marilyn, I am so sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it must be. I am curious though about what type of Felv test you had done. There is the Elisa test which is usually done in house and the IFA test which is done via a blood test at a lab and is supposed to be more accurate. I have

Thanks Amani - I am also very intrigued by Doxycycline being able to, I believe you said - possibly stop the FeLV virus from replicating. Is this being studied and tested by vets, schools, etc.? I also through it was said that the cannibas oil stopped the herpes virus of cold sores - my word -

Oh Marilyn, Destiny sounds like she was such a beautiful kitty -- I'm happy she didn't have to suffer more. I am curious though - you said she tested negative for FeLV, and then had the vaccine and boosters, not exposed to FeLV outside. What more could a pet owner do! (I hate FeLV!!) Ardy
