Regrettfully, I was not thinking straight and I had him creamated before I could even suggest an autopsy. I did mean the way he past, seems to be a bit odd as far as I can tell my case is a rare case with the bleeding, so am I sure my vet did everything she could....NO. Am I sure it was only FeLV...with the help of this site I would have to again say NO. Am I sure that waiting until Monday was best, maybe that day could have helped him.....again the answer is NO, I have major guilt that I can not shake.

found out this afternoon, that one other tested positive, so that is probally the case. I am just having a hard time swallowing the fact that the way it happened seems to be so uncommon.
No not really..several member on here have found out this very way...that another of their kitties was a dormant carrier and never knew it until another cat they had became sick and died..the WAY he died is a bit odd..but I would lay a guess that there was something else going on as well..be it FeLV related or not.....that is why I suggested an autopsy to be done

Please don't be too hard on yourself. Remember this disease evolved from
nature and infects wild cats of many species. It is a tough one to
accurately test for. It is a very sophisticated virus. No one wants this
illness. I did all the right things when I got Tigger. I had him
immediately tested. He was negative. He was quarantined from my other cats
for 90 days. All cats were housecats. Tigger still died and exposed my
other babies. This is a very tough battle to fight.
