MY cat is FeLV positive! And he has lymphoma. He had HUGE lymph
nodes which literally blew up overnight. And now he's on chemo. The
lymph nodes were literally GONE the day after his very first chemo.
I was absolutely shocked! And he's doing GREAT! Fat and happy now,
beautiful fur, eating and playing. He is "in apparent remission."
PLEASE see an oncologist!
I had the same reaction from one of the vets at my regular vet
practice. She said, oooh, FeLV+, not good BUT here is an oncologist
if you want. And I did. And six weeks later here we are!

The vet got back some blood test results, and says that it looks
like cancer. They can't know for sure without a biopsy, but they
don't suggest doing that.
So really i'm left with not really knowing for sure what is going
on. They won't do chemo without a definite diagnosis for cancer.
I'm not sure if I could afford that anyway...they didn't say
exactly how much it would cost, but said it wouldn't be a good
idea to spend thousands on FeLV+ cat with a poor prognosis.
