Sally, Thank you very much for sharing your experience. Maybe my cat got hemobartenella when I took him out of the house for two ultrassonagraphies last month. He does not like going out. Today he had a blood test and a radiography. I will talk to my vet about the prescription of doxycline and prednisone. All the best.

It is possible your cat has hemobartenella, which often causes amemia in feline leukemia infected cats. They often test negative for this and you should just treat as if the cat has it. Normal treatment is 3 weeks of doxycycline and prednisone. If a transfusion is needed until treatment starts to be effective then I would advise the transfusion. My cat was treated for this in the beginning and was not anemic after that. Of course he had his share of other problems. Best of luck Sally _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org Veja quais são os assuntos do momento no Yahoo! +Buscados http://br.maisbuscados.yahoo.com _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
