Sheila, my 2 cents- - for me - it's not just spreading the FeLV to others, it the autoimmune problem of not being able to fight off viruses or diseases that they could get from other cats. I have Buddy in our guest room - in a controlled environment- we replaced the door with another re-engineered door. The replacement door bottom panel we replaced with clear plexiglas so he can see the other cats in the house, and the top panel with a screen door screen guard panel for air and to get house sounds. He uses the plexiglas as a drum-especially when he wants attention!
I have spent at least 2 hours with him each night for the last 5 years- have my own easy chair and large screen tv :) That's the remedy I came up with so he gets plenty of loving and entertainment- he's probably the healthiest of all the other 14 I have inside! •Food: no junk food, both wet and no-grain kibble -that includes a variety of brands- and fresh water •Vaccine: wouldn't touch it - I don't use vaccines unless required by law •Stress: I keep it as low as possible, that means only vet trips if life & death- can't afford routine visits because we're living on retirement funds •Pray: a lot Will be praying for Robert too! -g 🇺🇸 Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 24, 2017, at 5:12 AM, Armstrong-Brown, Sheila DDS Timonium > <sheila.armstrong-br...@ssa.gov> wrote: > > I heard the leukemia vaccine carries a high risk of cancer.
