Hi all.
I just joined this list after doing all the reading I possibly could find on
feline leukemia. I recently acquired a Himalayan male cat around 5 to 6 years
of age from a rather unscrupulous family. I was familiar with the cat because
all summer he would come over to our house and hang
Lynne - I adopted a new kitty last July. Mandy also tested positive for
leukemia. I loved her immediately so I never considered anything but keeping
her. She is thriving. I feed her Wellness canned food (mixing in some lysine
and Missing Link) and Nutro dry food. She is more than six years
Hi Lynne
The rough numbers say 2/3's will be gone in 2 years...
That leaves 1/3 that will make it past 2 years and they will commonly
live to 8 years or longer...

Thanks for the encouraging news about your Mandy Pat. We're still trying to
modify our boy's diet. I bought this food called Medi-Cal hypoallergenic diet
from the vets because he was having diarrhea and terrible gas. He finally had
a solid bowel movement yesterday and seems to like the food
Well that's happy news Tad Since our cat is between 4 to 6 and well, maybe
he'll be around for a good length of time.

Hi Lynne
Lynne
Have one FELV+ who will be 10 years next month. She's a hefty 18 lbs and
the only problem (other than overeating!) she's had is a few episodes of
very low white blood count. Vet got the count up pretty quickly with
immuno-regulin. My other FELV+, Romeo, is probably a year or so
Dixie came into my life as a throw-away who showed up at my mother's.
I liked her and took her to my vet several months later to have her
spayed, intending to take her to my farm as a barn cat. He tested
her (she was still nameless) and she was FELV+. He explained the
options and was
Hi Lynne
I've found that feeding the best quality food possible, finding the
right supplements to boost immunity and a
stress free and loving environment does wonders. You might want to
get him on supplements to support
his immune system before and after his surgery (neutering). There is

Thank you Jane. BooBoo (we didn't name him) is on a good diet now and
seemingly in very good health and I think he feels really well having had a
conditioning bath and grooming. I think the little guy is clean for the first
time in his life. I talked to the vet about supplements and he

I guess I just liked the music. It is a Spay Neuter clinic somewhere that
put up the video. It still gets the message out there. I grew up on a farm.
After years my dad finally got
Can you sue the neighbor?
I can't hear the music:( No speakers. The kittens were adorable.:)
We don't adopt out any unaltered animals anyway. I just have a thing about
providing wrong info to the public.

that would play out. My brother will do the job, but with $1000 deductible

Hi Lynn, my Squeaky and Stripes tested positive. Squeak lived a healthy life
until age 22 years. Stripes was sick on and off and lived to age 16 years. This

Thanks Laurie for this encouragement. I've become angry at the people we got
the cat from only because they have still have an add on a site selling two
other cats, the one is a son of my cat and the other is a female. These people
don't believe in vets or neutering or spaying. They have
Dear Lynne
I have to say that I absorbed much of the encouragement that was meant for
you in those emails for myself! I have recently also joined this list
looking for hope against FeLV and everytime someone else joins I am further
encouraged.
Diet does seem to make a difference in all the
Welcome Lynne,
Bailey was positive when I found him at 5 months of age, he passed
in May 2006, five days after turning 11 years old, he was never sick
except for the last 6 months.
