Tad and Marie,
I am so sorry for your loss. Callie, got to live a loving life, though,
much too short. I wanted to thank you both again, for taking in those with
FELV and allowing again and again your heart to be broken.

My sincerest condolences to you both upon the loss of your furchild, Callie. I have been caring for these special creatures for over 40 years and each loss is as heartbreaking and painful as my first loss. The time we have to share with them is way too short, but were it not for

Tad,
I am overwhelmed both by your loss of Callie after so many
losses, and by finding out how many cats you have saved and given a good life
to. It is truly amazing. I hope that you are able to know very
clearly in your heart, through all the losses, what an amazing gift you have
given

Hi -- I'm new to the group and hope I'm not breaking any rules. This is my first experience with an FeLV+ cat who is also FIV+. There is this beautiful orange and white Garfield Maine Coone that needs a home. Rescued off the streets of Long Island just before the cold snap, I initially had a
Hi Pat -
I've had an FELV/FIV pos kitty - Mr. Black Kitty, a real beloved cat. He
came into my life skinny and sick, but feisty. Found him in 2001, he died
in 2002, a year later.
I've also asked about mixing FELV and FIV - and I don't think there's any
definitive answer, except that both

Thanks Gloria -- I too thought it was more of a problem for the FIV+ kitties. She seems to think that it would be a problem for the FeLV+ s but I guess it's all a matter of how you look at it. Mixing another virus into the equation is always risky. Thanks for the info. PAT[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

I don't think it would be a problem for the FELV's, mainly the FIV's.

1) I'm so sorry to hear of Callie passing to the bridge Tad. It's a
heartwrenching experience to have to send them there but Callie was a lucky girl
to have a family who fought with her and loved her until the end and who eased
her pain when she so needed to let go. She will always be a part
So, as I see it, the FIV+ is more likely to contract the FeLV virus than the other way around, I would guess. That's how I see it and it's very unlikely the FeLV contracts the FIV unless you have a very unhappy household. Thanks. PAT[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 1) I'm so sorry to hear of Callie

That's very true,, according to the professor Pedersen at UC Davis, at
least 50 % of FIV positive cats will live normal life span ..which seems
to be right.. I have 6 FIV cats and some are older kitties, but they are
just so healthy (big fat couch potatoes..) and I am very grateful of

The general consensus,I believe is that it is OK to put a FIV+/FELV+
cat in with FELV+ cats, and the FELV+ cats should not catch the FIV from him.
The reverse is not true, you do NOT want to put a FELV+ cat in with FIV+/FELV-
cats, because the FIV+ cats ARE likely to catch the FELV from him.
