Dear Clarissa
You've had great feedback already from this wonderful group,
I'm just throwing in my 2 cents worth. I took in a colony
of 5 feral kittens and 1 adult (it was freezing winter in
Chicago, 2 years ago) and all but one tested positive. Four of them eventually
sadly succumbed but before doing so they enjoyed 1 - 2 years of rambunctious
playfulness and wonderful quality of life, and I have no regrets--I know I did
the right thing in allowing them to live their lives and they brought me a huge
amount of pleasure even if they never did let me pick them up (except when they
got ill)!
I haven't tried Mega C--I will, tho--but I've always given
them L-Lysin. The remaining 2 cats are still healthy--one tested positive for
FeLv, the other--the original adult -- is negative. I still give them each a
crushed 500 mg L-Lysin tablet in their food every day, to boost their immune
system. Any drug store has it; I've found Trader Joe has the best price, $2.99
for 100 tablets.
Good luck with your little furry family---they are so lucky to
have found someone as caring as you, Clarissa. Please keep us posted when you
have time.
Kerry
