Both female cats that I have had with FIV (still have Buddy) were and are
calico

My first FELV cat was calico - Calawalla Banana Booboo, a real
darling. However, I now have several FELV cats and FIV cats. None
are calico. If there's any predominance in color, it's black. My
friend Susan has several FELV and FIV, and I don't recall seeing a
calico. FYI -

Calico's are notoriously feisty, strong willed and for lack of a better
euphemism, leader-oriented. I'd never heard that they were more likely
to get FIV, but the personality aspect sure makes sense, (same thing
with the orange boys). Very interesting. MC, what's the name of the

Thanks for the update Jen. Prayers and good energy for Ewok to continue

tumor and he becomes an even bigger xmas miracle boy.
Much love,

Would you add Pansy to the Bridge list? I took her to the vet this
morning to be spayed. When I called this afternoon, he said that she
died after the surgery!! I was shocked. I got her in early December.
She was not FELV, was a pretty little 6 mo old silver Persian, really
sweet,
Thanks so much, Kerry. I'm in shock, what can I say. he didnt say -
he did say that she had fluid on her chest, so suggested maybe FIP -
but I know how easy it is to blame these unknown things on FIV, FELV,
FIP and so on. He just didn't know. She seemed healthy, very
playful, ate ok -
How horrible! I'm so sorry. Big hugs to you.
Goodnight, sweet Pansy...

cause.

Gloria,
I am so sorry to hear about Pansy! What a shock that
must have been! What did the vet say caused Pansy's
death?! I am so sorry. This is a tough way to end a
year. I will keep you in my prayers and I hope that
you continue to be comforted by the warm memories you
have of her.
:)
Gloria,
Sorry-I responded to your post before I read the rest
and see that you already explained what the vet said.
I cannot imagine getting a phone call like that. What
Nina says is right: don't second-guess yourself. You
were doing the responsible thing for Pansy, taking her
in for a routine
