I am so sorry for your loss of Orlando. I do rescue work and I have
several FelV cats, and one of my favorites is a long haired black
male who tested positive several months ago. He is not just wasting
away. He is not anemic, has no tumors, but is just getting thinner
and thinner. Since he shows
He sounds like a super sweet special baby. I love kitty hugs :)
You were so lucky to have 4 wonderful years with him!

Did you test to see if he has an overactive thyroid? This can happen even to
younger cats. It may or may not be related to FeLv. Please have a thyroid
profile done before deciding on his fate. Thyroid can be treated with
medication. There's even an ear ointment that absorbs through the

Dear all,
I lost my sweet Sylvia cat this afternoon. Despite our best efforts with
daily subcutaneous fluids, appetite stimulants, Interferon, probiotics,
vitamins, steroids, and multiple antibiotics, she was still fading fast and
appeared to be in a significant amount of pain yesterday. So, with

Condolences on the loss of your dear friend, Sylvia. As you have so
beautifully written, you loved and appreciated her in your life, and knew
how to help her exit her life more easily. I hope the good memories of your
time together heal the pain of your loss.
Peace,
Bonnie

I am far from being an expert here. My cat Oliver (6) was diagnosed with the
leukemia virus back in December after my cat Daisy (4) suddenly got ill and
passed away. Turns out that she had leukemia even though she was vaccinated
against it and showed no prior signs of having it.

Anna, I am so sorry you lost your beautiful Sylvia. She sounds like she was
very special, and special to you.
You absolutely did the right thing in helping her along. As much as you want
them to stay, watching them suffer is horrible for both of you. When my dear
Luc reached the end (he was

Sylvia will always be with you. She lived a wonderful life and you
showed your love by staying with her to the end. Don't be surprised
if she sends you little ones to lighten your grief. Dixie sent me two.
Blessings to you. It is so hard.

Oh Anna,
I am so sorry. My heart breaks just reading your story. You loved her,
cared for her, and gave her everything you had. What more could any of us
ask for.
It is really hard to be only human sometimes and so limited in our
abilities to change the many injustices that seem to surround
