The reason 1/3 die from it is it is VERY hard to diagnose and some
cats will have it and get a negative test result and not get the
treatment, I have never heard of a cat getting the correct treatment
(doxy is preferred to treat it, though some cats need a 6 week course
to eradicate it) ever dying from it. Any one else heard of that??? I alwyas treat if there is the slightest suspicion that my cat has it no matter what the test results are, I've known people who's cats have had 5 and even 6 negative tests but the cat actually had it!! The feline leukemia home page says it is a contagious disease, 1/3 of cats die from it, & the ones who don't will have it for life. -- Belinda happiness is being owned by cats ...
