great also and I will retest him in a few more months, I did do a

ALferon, I started with the Immunoregulin.

So glad to hear good news. Thanks so much

I did not know how bad his eye hurt until he got home. The vet 
mentioned that aspirin was good for the inflammation. I am not sure 
why he did not just tell me to give him some. Although I do not like 
giving a cat aspirin I did give him about 1/3 of a baby aspirin last 
night. Best as I can tell he can probably get another dose tomorrow.


I think when my sister's cat Fluffy had a blood clot many years ago 
she was given aspirin daily. I remember how much pain she was in. It 
was like a miracle how quickly the aspirin took away the pain and 
eventually dissolved the clot. She had partial paralysis of her hind 
legs due to the clot. He actually had his eye open today. It still 
looks bad but I think it is better than yesterday.


Junior slept all day. I gave him L lysine 500 mg twice today in his 
baby food. He did not seem interested in eating anything else. His 
weight is good so a few days off his food should not be a problem.


Tiny is a real trooper even after all the vaccinations he got 
yesterday. He was a little less active today, but he still played 
and tried to sneak outside.  He is the only cat I know who does not 
play 'catch me if you can' when he gets away. All I had to do was 
call his name, and click to him and he came right to me. He really 
hates being inside all the time. The birds would not use the feeder 
I put outside my window. It has been there 3 weeks. It shouldn't 
have taken them more than a week to find it. I moved it today to the 
side yard. More cover for the birds on the side of the house.  I was 
hoping to give Tiny some entertainment since his favorite sport was 
catching yes and eating birds. I did hate him doing that.


The rest of the cats are doing well. Hopefully we caught the FeLV 
before it spread to them. Several of the cats had the same or more 
exposure than Tiny did.

erythromycin ointment that I had been using but can no longer get in 
his eye. He is sleeping peacefully right now. I am hoping a couple

eating baby food with the Lysine and vitamins as well as a squirt of 
Nutrical. He has been eating well up until this latest setback.  I 
am thinking it was this eye bc it is the one that had nerve damage 
from the accident.  The other eye is not affected. If it were he 
would not be able to see.


 I had another cat that had to have his eye removed after an injury 
did not heal. He let me know that it was hurting. After a month of 
treatment there was nothing else to do but remove the eye. However 
he did not have FeLV.


Any other suggestions?

Re: 1 year vs. 3 year vaccines - is this true?

[TenHouseCats]

rabies vaccination is regulated by state/local law, unlike others which are
far more discretionary between client and vet. so if your state/locale
requires annual vaccinations, it doesn't much matter.

haven't we been over and over this?

Hello;

I received information that you may be looking to adopt  an Felv positive 
kitten?  I have a very sweet 5 month old boy that is  currently battling an 
URI.  He needs a loving home that will care for  him and his ongoing daily 
concerns.  He needs to get over this URI,  gain some weight and have his 
tummy rubbed alot (one of his favorite  things).

Vinnie is his name and he was found inside one of our local  hotels.  We 
don't know how he got there!  Once live trapped he  went to our vets, was 
fixed and got his shots, then he came to  us!

Vinnie is a sweet tiny brown tabby with big brown eyes!  He is  currently in 
Frankenmuth, until his new home comes along.

Please  let me know if you might be interested and more about youself and 
your  past dealings with Felv positive kittens!

Thanks and Happy  Holidays!

Thanks, Terrie.  I hope your business trip is better than mine.  I had to go 
out of town for a week and Wednesday I got a very severe form of food 
poisoning.  I thought I would die.  I've lost 12lbs in 3 days.  I'm glad to say

Re: Vaccinate

[etrent]

I hope Junior feels better soon.  My vet only recommended the distemper for 
Mama Kitty when she is due next year since she has FeVL...and, like your vet, 
wouldn't administer unless she was symptom free and doing well.  My vet's take 
on this is that it would be horrible to have her fight off the FeVL only to 
succumb to something that was preventable.  That seems to make some sense to 
me.  All the others get all the vaccines including the vaccine for FeVL.

A few questions here:
 
I have two FELV cats. One symptomatic the other is not. They have both done the 
IR protocol per my request, My Vet normally will also vaccinate them for the 
usual diseases. Tiny is due for rabies and the distemper group. Junior the sick 
one would only get the distemper, but not tomorrow because he still has a URI 
and an eye infection.
 
I know there is some disagreement as to whether is vaccinate an immune 
compromised cat or not. My feeling is Tiny had a weak positive and no symptoms. 
He has been kept in the same room as Junior for three + weeks and has not 
caught Junior’s cold. I will vaccinate him against the normal stuff and the vet 
would also vaccinate him against FeLV. Any thoughts about that and what are 
pros and cons. 
 
Junior has been on Baytril for 10 days. He acts a bit better but definitely not 
himself. He is due for one more IR which I will get tomorrow. I am a bit 
concerned about his eye. It is closed shut he doesn’t like me to fool with it. 
I have tried getting opthalmalic ointment in it mostly I miss. I did get some 
in it tonight.  It looked pretty inflamed. He is mostly blind in this eye from 
being hit by a car last April. I have tried L Lysine in his food but he is not 
eating all that well. Any thoughts here? Of Course I will get the Vet to look 
at it tomorrow. I am also taking the paper on Alferon for the vet to read over. 
I think he needs something more. Good news is he is no longer anemic and his 
gingivitis is better. 
 
Thanks for your help

Can the vet give you some meds for pain?

  At this point his eye hurts so bad I can't get near it. The vet did not give 
me anything for that reason. He did say there was a medicine we could have used 
but because it was too difficult for me to administer it he went with the oral 
antibiotic instead. I do have erythromycin ointment that I had been using but 
can no longer get in his eye. He is sleeping peacefully right now. I am hoping 
a couple days on the Clindamycin will see some improvement in Junior. He is 
eating baby food with the Lysine and vitamins as well as a squirt of Nutrical. 
He has been eating well up until this latest setback.  I am thinking it was 
this eye bc it is the one that had nerve damage from the accident.  The other 
eye is not affected. If it were he would not be able to see. 

   

   I had another cat that had to have his eye removed after an injury did not 
heal. He let me know that it was hurting. After a month of treatment there was 
nothing else to do but remove the eye. However he did not have FeLV.

   

  Any other suggestions?

Hi Sally,
   
  My Bandy has uveitis, and we have been dealing with it since around Feb. this 
year.. We tried all sorts of things at first as he did have an eye infection so 
he was mostly on antibiotic eye drops until that cleared then we added the dex 
drops.  He just kept getting worse and went almost all the way blind..So I took 
him to an eye specialist in Dallas..
  He changed the meds and Bandy had almost immediate relief and most of his 
vision returned even though the doctor thought he had only a slim chance for 
recovery...
  He changed the med to prednisolone ac 1% ophth susp.  He was getting 1 to 2 
drops per eye 3 to 4 times a day..the fibrin went away almost immediately.  We 
also used atropine ointment or you can use the drops to try to keep the pupils 
from getting fixed.  Bandy's pupils are permanetly fixed now but he can see..I 
don't think he has alot of depth perception, but he can climb and get around 
great now..I haven't taken him back for a re-check since the summer and we are 
past due..and hoping to go soon as I can get this ringworm thing under control 
again..he is FIV+ Felv+ so we have dealt with alot of things..
  I would suggest that you try this med as it is what works best for this..We 
need to have glaucoma tests repeated as often as possible as it can cause 
that...Bandy is on 1 drop every 3 days now and it seems to be working..I am 
going to contact his doctor next week and will keep you posted as to what our 
next move is for now..
  Hope this helps..It was amazing for Bandy..
  Let me know if you need any more info about it..
  Kerry, Bandy and Inky
   
  I forgot to mention that after about 1 month they decreased the dosage for 
Bandy to 1 drop twice and day..and I think I told you that he is on it every 3 
days now..
