Thank you everyone, for your kind thoughts.
Hobbs was just over a year old, they were about 6 weeks old when we found
them mid-April of 2007.
I am wondering what others' experiences have been with kittens born with
leukemia, and how long they have lived.
Thank you all for your prayers for Sissy
Heather, I'm so sorry about Hobbs. You and your friends Jann are remarkable
people. I'm so thankful there are people like you on this earth. I really
pray for Jann's sake that Sissy's life has a better outcome.

My experience with leukemia positive kittens has been that they do not live
more than two or three months. Hobbs' much longer life is no doubt due to the

all be proud of what you did for him. My condolences to all
I am so sorry. Three friends also lost cats this weekend...
2 Saturday night and one early this morning.
Prayers for all those kitty angels and their grieving caretakers/guardians.

I'm so sorry to hear of Hobb's passing.
I have two, one year old FeLV+ cats and my heart breaks a little every time
I hear of the loss of one of these precious babies.

Hi All,
Welcome Laura and Laura! L- lysine is great for herpes. You might want to join
the feline herpes group, too. Those kitties can have eye and mouth problems.
Winston (probable herpes) also has unexplained high fevers and anorexia on rare
occasions - it is touch and go at those time. For herpes,
Laurie, I totally agree with you about herpes and stress level. I told you
folks about the rescued Persian, Snowy, I adopted. She was a very sick girl
for 2 months and the foster mom got her healthy. Her eyes were swollen shut
and she also had a URI. Since we've had her we have done
