I am sure that others on the list will tell you the same as I have. Leukemia is not as bad as many vets would have you believe. Yes, it is serious but can be dealt with. When Annie was diagnosed, my vet told me that I had 2 choices; pout her down or keep her and watch carefully for signs of the disease along with vaccinating my other cats for FELV. Annie hs never had any problems. I had one other that showed up at my house with a lot of problems. She had her tail bitten off by a raccoon, was close to starving. With good food, clean water and a house to live in, she lasted over 2 years. She died from a UTI and stones. Please explain to possible adopters that this is not a death sentence. With good food, care and love, this kitten could last many years.
