Hemobartonella is completely curable, even in FELV+ cats. Don't throw in the towel just yet! Keep up with the treatment, and it's likely your baby will be just fine! It is good to know of the FELV status anyways, but I certainly wouldn't assume that the FELV has become symptomatic just because the cat caught hemobart. The two things are often totally unrelated. Cats without FELV do catch Hemobart, and cats that caught Hemobart are often not FELV positive! Keep a positive outlook, and ASSUME your cat will recover fully from the Hemobart, that is the right way to go about approaching this circumstance.
