I am new to this list. I found out a week ago that a kitten (Smokey) I had taken in back in November is positive. I had him tested back in November and it was negative, but he kept on getting fevers and the vet did blood work. He was anemic and his red and white blood cell count was low. The vet decided to check him again for feline leukemia and this test was positive. I just got him from the vet yesterday because he had been there for a fever again. He is on Pet Tinic, Baytril, Clavamox and last night I started him on Interferon. Is there anything else I can do? His temp. is normal right now. I have other cats that he had been aroung but they are adults and have been vacinated every year of their life. I had them all retested last week and all were negative but I will have them retested in 3 months. I have never had a cat that was positive, so I am pretty upset. I worry about Smokey and if he is suffering and I also worry about my other cats. I have him separated from the other cats. I want to keep him and just keep him away from my other cats but if he gets a fever again my vet seems to think that we have done all we can do for him. I DON'T want to have him put to sleep but I just don't know what to do now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
