For me, I just deal with the FELV the way I usually do, and assume FELV is the major culprit. With FELV cats that are fairly young - like less than 4 years old - I'd give interferon. For those older than that, I haven't been doing anything except giving them a stable environment and care. I have 1 double positive right now, he's about 4-5 years old, B.B., and he's doing great.

I had one prior to that, and he was in bad shape when I got him. he lived 1 year. Mr. Black Kitty was a great cat, great attitude - had diarrhea problems, which got resolved, and had fragile bones prior to his death. Seemed to die of kidney failure, I don't know.

Subject: double pos.

I haven't had time to pester my vet w/questions about Percy, who is double pos. (felv+ / fiv+).

Does anyone have any special advice for double pos.cats?

Or is it pretty much the same protacol as w/felv+....?

Just curious.
