I am so sorry to hear about Casper. I do think sometimes the ones we think become FeLV+ were already positive (like my kitty who the vet said probably carried it in his bone marrow). YES re the anemia! My niece rescued a FeLV+ adult cat almost 3 years ago. She is a happy and healthy 13 lb girl! We also rescued a kitten who was a suspected victim of the food recall. He was also very sick with anemia and is still alive ...3? or 4 years later. L

I've always mixed mine with no transmission. But that was a personal choice. I know some people on this list have successfully treated anemia. It depends on what is the underlying cause. They give Doxy in the hopes it is Hemobart. I hope for the best for you and Casper.

So by making the decision to mix I have condemned him. He is anemic and he is going on Doxycyclne and Prednosolone. Has anyone ever heard of a cat that has anemia living longer then a few months? _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
