That is a bunch of Bullsh*t! We had Peanut the whole time I was pregnant and no one ever said anything to me about felv being transferable to humans even with low immune systems. The only thing that I have ever heard of being transfered from feline to human is toxoplasmosis. I've read things that say there is a "possiblity" of felv being transfered to people with immune deficiencies but they have no evidence to prove that it is just a theory. Niki if Kristy is your friend please tell her not to give away her kitty. If she loves him she should keep him. We got Peanut when I was 2 1/2 months pregnant and my son is perfectly fine. he didn't want to leave my uterus but that's besides the point b/c he is perfectly health and is going to be one in 16 days.

>I have a 3-year old, short-haird, male cat, who is postive with Lukemia and we need to find him a good home. I just found out I'm pregnant and my Vet and OBGYN suggest finding a new home for Pumpkin. He has been fixed, and is in otherwise good health. I know some evidence suggests that FLEV+ is not transmitted to humans, but some evidence suggests it may be possible in developing fetus or children under 3 with weak immune systems. We just can't take the chance. Please help me find a home for Pumpkin. We live in Norther NJ.
