Where in Kentucky are you? I ask because I live there and have a
holistic vet that consults by phone if you can't get to the office.
She uses supplements that helped with Dixie's quality of life and have
helped with Copper, Thomas and Bob. Copper and Thomas are negative
but came from a pine thicket where the hawks were waiting for them to
get a little bigger before they invited them to dinner.

Hey, I just wanted to introduce myself. I am Katy and I have two FeLV
+ cats. I live in Kentucky.
I have worked in animal rescue for about a year and a half, since I
graduated college in 2009. I found a 5-week old kitten, Buddy,
abandoned in a gulley next to a parking lot, summer of '09. He
tested positive for the FeLV blood test and tested positive again
several months later.
He is very healthy and is very playful. I felt very bad that he was
alone all the time, when I saw on one of my animal rescue networks
that another FeLV+ cat needed a home. So I took her in, het name is
Chloe.
So far, they are healthy and active. The only way I can tell that
they have FeLV is that they test positive and they get sick easily.
Vets in area told me to put them asleep now, even though they are
healthy. Small town vets don't seem to be very educated on the FeLV
subject.
Reading all the emails lately have given me a lot of hope and I
really appreciate this email list. Thanks for sharing your
experiences!
