Just to add a little to what others have said -- you probably shouldn't have the cat tested for feline leukemia AND vaccinated for it at the same time. Everybody has different experiences, but if the cat is already positive for leukemia, the vaccination won't help and might actually harm. And any test they get results from immediately (the one they do right in the office) is not always accurate. Tell the vet no to the vaccine until you find out the cat's status for sure. We are using vitamin B complex (in dropper form) as an appetite stimulant for our two FeLV-negative but hyperthyroid cats, and it seems to be working. You can get it at a health food store, or possibly a drugstore but we didn't find it there. We just put a few drops right in the food. Hope this helps and that your guy tests out negative! Diane R.
