Hello,
Our vet sent a sample of my cousin Tom's FeLV cat Baby (*) to Scanelis in France to determine her viral load -and the news was good! She is found to have a very low viral load, 8.77 x 103 per 2.5 microliters of blood examined. This is encouraging as, first, it matches her absence of symptoms, and it implies that she can have a dental now while she's still pretty healthy. If Tom can keep her teeth/gums healthy, perhaps stomatitis can be avoided. Scanelis also noted that in spite of her low viral load, immunosuppressive drugs should be avoided. (*Baby stays with us when Tom goes away.) Thanks, - Lorraine
