[Felvtalk] Good News - Successful Multi-Cat House!
I recently had Brady re-tested for felv, 3 1/2 months after we brought our felv+ kitten into the same household. Brady tested negative on the snap test! The vet told us as long as we keep up with his boosters, he should be fine. We will not test again for felv. Brady was 1 year 3 months when he began living with our felv+ kitten. Brady did have a felv vaccination when he was a kitten. They have separate food bowls, but they share everything else. They also like to groom each other (which I try to stop when I see it, but I'm sure they do it when I am not around) I very glad we decided to keep them both together! ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org

My friend Ellen has done the same thing, several years ago. One kitten was FELV+, the other not. They retested and nothing had changed. The kitties are now over 3 years old, the FELV cat is on Interferon alpha, and both kitties are doing fine. Yeaa.
