Good luck, Debbie. Your furry gang is lucky to have ended up with you.

felt we should know. This way at least we can take extra care for any that
might test positive. We went out and got lots of carriers. Going to have to
take two vehicles. The vet we chose is about 17 miles from us. They gave us a
mutiple cat discount but everyone had to go in at once.
I appreciate the people on this list taking the time out to comment. I tend
to be a loner most times. I am at work at the moment. I work with ALOT of
farmers who look at cats as a nuisance here. Makes for some very unpleasant
conversations at times here.
I have had cats for as long as I remember. I would not trade those
friendships for all the human ones in the world. It is always refreshing though
to find people who care as much about animals as I do.
The Humane Society here said I was not doing the cats any favors by taking in
so many, without having them all tested and vaccinated for FELV. We got all
the cats at the same time. All abandoned, some even starving. We have had them
all spayed/ neutered and had all other shots. We keep them all indoors and keep
them clean, well groomed, etc... I would have hoped for a better response from
a Humane Society. I had asked them if we bought all the vaccines if they would
administer the shots for a "donation."
I refuse to ever turn a blind eye to an animal in need of help. If that means
spending alot of money on them than so be it.

Subject: 14 cats going to be tested
Am taking our 14 cats in tonight to be tested for FELV. This was after we had
Elsa put to sleep because of fluid in her lungs and her testing positive.
Wish us luck. I don't know what to expect. I'd like to think no one else will
test positive, but I doubt that will be the case. All the cats are around the
same age (3-4 yrs). Different litters though. Has a genetic factor to this
disease ever been found?
