good to hear that...Just a thought on Cornell's position on FELV. It is better to err by being overly cautious don't you think. IMO
Many years ago, I had a soul kitty named Black Jack aka Blackie. For a cat who had pneumonia when he was found starving at my mother's school he lived a pretty long time. He off and on had health problems uri's and mouth ulcers. He also was run over because he had a habit of laying under the car. He broke his hip. Well although neutered he got bitten by another cat. Not the first time for that either, but after several rounds of abxs it was apparent it was not healing. He took to sleeping at the foot of my bed purring. Well I do not remember the time that went by probably only a day or two, but he was not leaving my bed for any reason. I did not know as much about cat health but I knew he was probably in renal failure. My dad took him to the vet for what I knew would be his last visit and it was. The vet dx's FELV and he was PTS this was 1988. Jack was about 11. We had another cat at the time named Joe. I am sure they ate together etc. and I was worried but infection. The vet told me not to worry because the other cat was young and healthy. Well Joe lived to be 20. So the vet was right. Sally > >
