My Cleo and Rusty were both vaccinated. My husband and I are becoming very attached to him. I still hesitate to mix him until he has another test. I am over-reacting because of my last 3 cats. To be honest, my husband has retired and we cannot afford the vet bills, like we could in the past. Our little Molly cost us thousands, I don't regret it, we loved her so, and she gave so much love back to us. I am just afraid that if little Lucky gets sick or if my 2 negatives (Cleo & Rusty) develop Felv I won't be able to be as aggressive in treating them.

The vets figured he had it from the day he was born. My 3 others ranging from 2 to 5 have lived with him, groomed him, ate and drank with him, etc. None of them were ever vaccinated for felv and they all tested negative. Dr mike Richards has some good articles on felv on the net, if u r interested. And I must say that I do feel very lucky that everyone tested neg.

All are healthy. 2, Annie (5years) and Nitnoy (around 2 years) are positive. They have been together for 4 years and my vet told me that as long as I keep the negatives vaccinated there should be no problem. They all continue o be healthy with sleek, shiny coats, clear eyes, noses and ears. They are all full of energy. In short, no problems. If your other cats are at least 2 years and are up to date on their shots, I don't see any problems. Only Tiger may have one as h is a kitten, but if you feed good quality food, give him medical care when needed and give him lots of love, I wuld keep him . If you have hd him for 2 days minimum, he has already got you and yu wont be able to let him go. > ---- katskat1 <katsk...@gmail.com> wrote: >> I have 2 positives, one of them over 12 years old, the other about 2 >> or 3.
