The danger (if any) would be to the fiv cat..........
Speaking
of having to decide.... I was just asked if I would take a young cat
that is both FeLV+ and FIV+...
How much risk does this add to my 10 FeLV+ cats??? This cat is supposed
to be otherwise healthy but
its like having a double whammy against his immune system and is that
asking for trouble.????
I had a double pos once before and he came down with a 107 fever
shortly after I got him and we fought
it with much time spent in a cage at the vets for the next 3 weeks and
then we let him go...
This cat will be PTS tomorrow if I don't take him.... Help.. What to
do???

thinking I'm being flip when I say what I say:
It's possible to ride my bike down the street and get hit, that doesn't
mean I will never ride my bike down the street again. All things in
life happen when it is time for them to happen, if I am suppose to die
of old age at 95 then nothing is going to change that no matter what I
expose myself to. That is what I believe. We give ourselves too much
credit for having control over everything, we all decided what our
lives would be when we arrived here and it will run it's course as it
was planned long ago. Guess you can tell I believe in more than just
here and now! :)

Here's my take on it. The experts tell me that it is possible to be
struck by lightening in a thunderstorm. Me - I've been outside
countless times when it started storming - and I've never been struck
and neither has anyone in my family or anyone I know. Do the weather
experts need to update their websites and literature? I'm thinking it
might be a good idea to think long and hard before standing out in the
rain with a metal pole. Now - I don't know if it's easier to be struck
by lightening than for casual contact FeVL contamination to occur - I
simply do not know the odds...but if it's possible - I surely do want
to know and take some precautions where appropriate.
