I forwarded this to Kyle. You remember Kyle and Brissle? He's in FL
and the last time we spoke he was thinking about the possibility of
adopting a friend for Squirmee.

Sorry to hear about Rascal, but know that there is a great chance that all will be well after this hump you guys are handeling right now.

I am so glad you rescued that baby, humans CAN NOT GET Feline lukemia do not worry about it, and you should definately take her to a vet and get her checked out, if she is having trouble breathing.
Please, please keep us informed...I am worried about the baby

Hello Group:I just got back from the vet where my 11 month old cat "Arlo" wasgiven a blood transfusion and a battery of tests. The prognosis isnot good..PROBALLY FelV...so I wanted to get some feedback from the group ifthere is anything else I can try if the meds I am giving don't work --I
Did they do that test that checks to see if there are all stages of the RBC development? It's some kind of stain test, something Blue. I wish I could remember it--when one of my cats got several anemic, he was determined to have Hemobart (he was FeLV+) and so I said we would treat that since I

All of these cats were inside cats, yes, he was an indoor feral. I thought
he might be happier outside because he is so wild, but I guess indoors is all he

It is unfortunate that this kitten tested positive, there is high
probability that she is not really positive as the test at that age is
reading the antibodies from her mother's milk and she will have an excellent
chance of testing negative when she is about 6 months old. It takes that
long
How big was the kitten? Did you feed her anything? What?
She may very well have died of hypothermia and anemia from lack of food and
shelter.

What grade is his heart murmur? The roman numeral you posted makes NO
sense. That would be my first major concern. there are so many drugs that vets
use that are not safe to use on cats with severe heart murmurs.
Starting treatments for hemobart is the right thing to do, hopefully that

I am rather new to FeLV but Cornell University has good sites for
information on this illness. If the anemia is from FeLV it has to be in
the bone marrow which according to what I have read, means the FeLV has been
with the cat for a long time. Our vet has our Stinky cat on Interferon and
I assume they did the combined FIV/FeLV test,
right? If they tested positive for both, the FIV test is pretty much
worthless - way too young for a true positive - and they may shed the FeLV in a
few months.Just about everyone suggests lysine but I haven't heard
anything about giving it to
Yes, Michelle the Interferon message was from Stinky's Mom and I will go to
the site you sentfor Revival. The vets are of a notion that if it
isn't FeLV than it is most likely cancer. I will go to this site and order
some for Stinky. I did tell my vet aboutImmuno-regulin use in

Kyle is interested. He's been letting Squirmee be an indoor/outdoor cat
and he's worried how he'll react if he shuts off access to the outside,
(to keep the little girl in). I sent him the link for more info.

It does not have to be either FeLV or cancer-- it can be both, as FeLV
makes them more susceptible to lymphoma. In fact, FeLV itself does not cause
symptoms- it is a virus that causes an immune-deficiency and makes them
susceptible to other things that cause symptoms. If Stinky is FeLV+,
When they are not producing RBC's, Epogen or Procrit sometimes helps.
This is because failure to produce RBC's sometimes comes from the kidneys not
sending a hormone they are supposed to send out that tells the bone marrow to
produce RBC's. Procrit and Epogen are synthetic copies of that
Read the articles on Immuno-Regulin on the website for this group (www.felineleukemia.org). I have
used it twice with severe URI's (one was pneumonia and the other a URI causing
fever and lack of appetite) and it helped a lot. One of my cats had some
bad temporary side effects of high fever
The only thing I dont
like about the Cornell site is that they have not updated their overview
information to reflect current protocols. They still say you have to wait
at least 30 days to use a space in which there previously was a pos cat
also, are very pessimistic about survival rate,
I ditto good comments on
immuno-regulin. My Tucson has had two series each time her white blood count went very
low. Both times it came right back up She had no side
effectshad one shot every week for 3 or 4 weeks I think.

I totally agree with Belinda!
Very outdated and they still advise euthanizing Felv/Fiv kitties.
