Dot, if your other cats are current on vaccinations and are negative, I see no reason why you shouldn't mix them. Like I've said before, I've mixed mine in the past and never have I had a negative become infected.

Can you believe this. O.K. So, what do you know about the 5 stages? What does it mean? I think I heard that if your cat can make it through all five stages, then they have developed an immunity to the disease. Anyway, how is it keeping your cat apart from the others? My cat is so lonely. It breaks my heart. She wants to play with the others. Esp the male cat who she knows from the clan where i rescued the two of them. I really would love to adopt her out. Just having a hard time finding someone. P.S. - I like the name Spicy! It is cute.

I do have other cats at home, Spicy lives in a bedroom by herself. She has two windows to look out of, a cat tree and a sofa. Spicy has had no signs of the illness. So I didn't know she had it. I adopted her the first weekend in June and took her to the vet a week later. The receptionist at my vets was the one that stressed getting the test done because she knew that the shelter I adopted her from didn't test, I had no idea. So for a week she was with my other cats. I just looked it up there are 6 stages of FELV. Spicy is in stage 5.

My cat, Chloe, female one year old, pretty gray/black/caramel tabby, is also positive. I have known since June when she had a fever. She has stabilized and is doing so well now. Very healthy and playful. She is a little "squirt", i call her. I have been looking for a home for her since I have two other negative cats and have to keep them separated. She is so cute. i hated to just put her down so figured i would give it a shot to see if i could adopt her. Do you have other cats at home? How is your cat doing now? You said it's in her bone marrow. Are there different stages? I am not sure totally about the disease as this is the first cat I have ever had in 30 years that has the leukemia. So, it is all new to me also.

I was questioning whether to get her a friend or not. Last week I had her blood sent out to confirm if she really had FELV. Well her results came in yesterday, it's in her bone marrow. I still haven't decided on a friend for her yet, I'm unsure what to do with my house already full. I think I would need to adopt another cat with it already in their bone marrow too, right? I've never had a FELV+ cat, so I don't know what to do.
