Hi Jenny, Thanks for your helpful emails-- this listserv is a lifesaver. I really hope you're right that this is an infection and treatable; Sylvia is such a wonderful cat. I'll keep an eye out for anything from Laura, as well, and bring up your treatment regimen when I see the vet again on Wednesday. Sylvia seems stable at the moment. She's out from under the bed, at least, and has curled up on the couch instead. She's still eating, and she hasn't been trying to get away from me when I pick her up to hold her (she wasn't interested in any kind of cuddles at all on Friday). Yesterday her fever had come down from 105 to 103 (I'm checking every 24hrs). She's had an injection of Convenia and the vet has me giving her broad-spectrum oral antibiotics (Zeniquin) daily as well. We go back to the vet on Wed. for more bloodwork and to see if she's improving at all. Fingers crossed! Thanks again! Best, Anna, Sylvia, and Beatrice -- Anna E.

It's a great comfort to me to have a sounding board and to hear how others are treating their kitties. Buster has just begun sneezing, just a bit, but no blood.

Re: [Felvtalk] Thanks for the replies
Muscle weakness and muscle wasting on rear legs are the first side effects of long-term pred dosing. And long term for pred is not(as I thought)5 years but a couple or 3. I also think that his sitting not touching the floor is due to either arthritis and/or muscle pain. If his muscles are weakening he'll be in pain. I've two cats that do it and one of the rescue kittens did it recently(she hurt her back via bad fall, she's much better but it was scary) I also have another kitten that was dx with muscle wasting(birth defect) he doesn't sit normally either. I understand your feelings and am sorry for what you are going throught, a 15 year old is frail and lots of infirmities like an elderly person. So you are doing your best and giving lots of love to Buster, thats waht matters I believe. IMO if he had FIP(there's no test for FIP, the lady must have meant FIV?) he wouldn't be with you now and if he had FeLV probably not either. I do have a cat for adoption that is 10 yrs old and tested FIV+ twice, that to me is remarkable b/c he was a cat that owner kept outside, I wouldn't expect it to live this long being exposed to so much.

Re: [Felvtalk] Thanks for the replies
Marta - I have an FIV + cat that is like 12 or 13 yrs old (we don't know for sure but that's what I think) with no sign of giving up the ghost as my husband says. He used to live indoor/outdoor I believe. So these FIV kitties can live a fairly long life. My friend's FIV kitties have always lived into their teens. My cat, a former foster, had a really bad URI when I got him three years ago and the vet wasn't sure he'd recover since he had FIV. A two week round of Clavamox was all it took and he was fine. Just thought I'd share in case anyone was worried about the lifespan of a cat with FIV. I'd rather a cat test positive for FIV rather than FeLV. His chances are better and he's not as contagious. “I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn’t….the pain which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2011 20:56:23 -0800 From: marta.gas...@yahoo.com To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Thanks for the replies Muscle weakness and muscle wasting on rear legs are the first side effects of long-term pred dosing.

[Felvtalk] Thanks Jenny--- Kia
Hi all, Jenny, Thanks for the info on the vitamins. Can I get the vitamin C and add it to her food as well? This vet only offered me two suggestions. The meds I mentioned and chemo. No way could I afford chemo treatments unfortunately. If I could give Kia something natural while not being expensive I would definitely try. I don't know if the vet would be open to IV vitamin C or not. Would have to ask. Please let me know about dosages for those vitamins. Kia is only about 6.7 lbs now. I agree that most researchers aren't interested in curing animals of their diseases. Guess there isn't enough money in it for them. Thanks again for the help. janet ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
Re: [Felvtalk] Thanks Jenny--- Kia
Any chance of finding another vet??? Re chemo: That is what the experts wanted to do to the Royal Princess Kitty Katt for cancer. I talked to her regular vets and we decided that the chemo would take an awful toll on Kitty, making her miserable. We opted to do nothing. This is what I chose based on her personality and the very honest information I got from my vets at Middletown Animal Clinic. Sometimes you need to get an objective opinion and information about a lot of things. You can't afford it. Do not feel bad about that. This may be a kindness. Do you have access to a homeopathic vet? I have a wonderful one who has treated six of my wonderful guys and girls for various things. Just an idea. On May 2, 2010, at 5:17 PM, kia wrote: Hi all, Jenny, Thanks for the info on the vitamins.

Re: [Felvtalk] Thanks Jenny--- Kia
Janet, Probably the best approach to the vitamins is to do cod liver oil - nordic natural pet cod liver oil. It contains the fish oil, vitamin A and Vitamin D. You can order this online or get it from pretty much any holistic vet. I believe the dosage is one quarter teaspoon daily, but check the label to be sure. You can add Vitamin E - 50 - 75 IU daily. I would be somewhat cautious with the vitamin E as it can cause blood thinning and hemorrhage at too high a dose. 75 should be fine, but I may only do this every other day for a period of two to three weeks. Vitamin C, IV dosage is really the only dosage seen to treat lymphomas but if that is not an option the oral route can't hurt. It has not, however, shown the same results as IV dosage. You can get Mega C - this formula also contains vitamin A, D and E. For that reason, I would probably only give 20 IU or Vitamin E additionally. So overall, this is what I'd do Cod Liver Oil - 1/4 teaspoon daily (check label to be certain) Mega C - 1/4 teaspoon daily Vitamin E - 20 IU every other day for two to three weeks. I would just order the nordic natural pet cod liver oil and mega C over the internet and get the vitamin E from a health store. All told, this shouldn't cost more than 50-60 dollars and you should have enough for quite awhile. The only concern I would have is that the Vitamin A dosage will be quite high with this combination, but studies have shown cats to very tolerable of vitamin A. I would only recommend watching for any signs of toxicity including lethary, anorexia, stumbling or limping. If you see any of this, stop treatment immediately. I do not see it being a problem but be watchful, all treatments carry some risk. I would still treat the ear infection with otomax or some other topical treatment that vet should have prescribed. The oral infection may improve with this orthomolecular treatment. Hope that helps and good luck.

Re: [Felvtalk] Thanks, and a personal query (Aries/Jennifer R. in PA? (was Re: Anyone onLiveJournal's catlovers group?
Thanks for the kind words, Jean - glad I had time to do it and hope it helps in some way. I didn't know about that group. And re Jennifer, I found a couple of messages in the archives - her phone number shows up at 814-641-7160 --- My name is Jennifer Reihart and I run a hospice center/rescue for cats with FeLv. I have been doing it for over 6 years and have gotten cats from all over the eastern US. OH, NY, NJ, PA, NC, and even as far as Texas. We have a huge house, and take in cats from different areas, and various backgrounds and give them a place to call home. I am independent, my husband and I do this on our own, and out of love for these special cats. They have free run of the home, and get lots of love and attention. We currently have 13, and they all have their own space, however at night our bed is covered in cats. I have gotten several cats from FeLv.org and have given them a loving home. We have had 3 live past 9, most live until 5 or 6, we have one that is 7. We don't do anything special, they get good cat food, wet in the morning-dry throughout the day. But what I think is our secret to having them live longer is lots of love. they are all used to being petted, kissed, and made over. Each one has it's own special personality, that's what I love about cats, no two are the same. I just wanted to introduce myself to the group. We have worked a little with the Marley fund in NC, but mostly we take cats from various rescue groups and individuals who are desperate to find a good home for their cats. We do insist they bring the cat's here so that they can see the love and attention we give the cats. This set's their mind at ease, and makes the transition easier. --- Gloria On Jun 1, 2009, at 10:29 AM, Jean wrote: Hi again-- One of the wonderful members here -- Gloria -- signed on to Facebook and gave the poster some good info on dealing with a FELV+ kitty.

Re: [Felvtalk] thanks, all of you!
Judy, sounds like you are making progress. I used to mix the Clinicare with Albert's renal canned food to make it easier to syringe. He needed every calorie I could get into him. You could also try offering a small bowl of Clinicare to Wilson. Sometimes Albert liked lapping it up. I am lousy at pilling so I crushed and dissolved all my cats meds, mixed with a little food and syringed them.
