Kenzie...I am so glad to hear your good news! As for the future, think
positive thoughts! It's always good to hear about negatives.

This is how our household situation is- I began bottle feeding kittens in May-
they were found in a burn barrell. In July, new to my kitty care, I took in a
kitten they thought needed feeding but turned out he was very sick and near
death when I got him. Worm infested and dehydrated and cold to the touch, I
took him to the vet who thought I was crazy because he was so near death but we
wormed him and gave him fluids- The next day was a huge turn around and the
weeks and months that followed even more so. We did go through a bout of
ringworm but the girls never got it just him. In August, they got their vet
work done before working on new homes for them and all three came back FELV
positive.
I was devastated but ignored the advice of euthanasia and kept them for myself.
We ordered Mega C Plus and another supplement and began that. They had a life
and were healthy and happy! In late September Frankie, the male, had another
bout w/ vomiting and weight loss, the girls never had it. We separated him and
went through weeks of antibiotic and he eventually began eating and turn around
and rejoined the house. He didn't play as often, just sat quietly but he was
eating drinking and using the litter box. NO fevers or any other signs of
illness except his quietness.
In October, things gradually went down hill for Frankie and we put him down in
November. I truely believe Frankie was the carrier giving the girls the
exposure. The girls were still happy and healthy. I volunteer for rescue and
as in the previous emails, my spare room has been used for extras w/out homes.
As you know, we had that light positive and the mom and brother weren't and
they have been separate from my girls.
Yesterday, we retested the rescue, Jill, and my girls Maggie and Mitzy----THEY
ARE ALL NEGATIVE!! The vet asked lots of questions because they are unfamiliar
w/ FELV and don't usually actively treat it. We are so happy for this. Jill
gets to go to her new home and my girls get to celebrate their first birthday
in May. We are aware that this result can turn around under times of stress
and age but for now we are celebrating!Kenzie KanneARC Volunteer

Congratulation Kenzie. I can well imagine your jubilance! (I had the
same turnaround with my Mickey)
It's great to hear good news.
And hopefully another vet is duly enlightened and will spread the word.
Kerry M
