It's time for the General's yearly checkup. I've had him for 2 years. He's
had a rabies shot and a calici virus shot and FVRCP booster when I got him
and then the next year as well. I'm not a big vaccination person, I no
longer allow my dog to be vaccinated. This cat was a stray, and he is
I can't tell you much about the seperation part as I only have the one cat,
and have never had one before this one. I just want to put in my 2 cents
for the idea that FeLv+ cats can live very happy lives. I have one that I've
had for 2 years. he may get sick tomorrow, and he has been sick
I'm certainly not a vet, so maybe this is overkill, but I'm very cautious
about carrying disease/germs etc. when I come back from the shelter (I
volunteer there) I am afraid, not that I'll infect anyone there, but that my
FeLV+ boy will pick up some germ from there. So I don't take him there
HAS anyone done a CBC? I'm wondering if his red blood cell count is down,
which might account for the shortness of breath since they carry oxygen.
Pale gums can be a sign of low red blood cells.
I'm not a vet, I've just got a dog with low red and white cells from a tick
borne disease.
My Miniature Schnauzer has a host of things wrong with her.? She's on Vetricine
to boost her immune system.? Since General won't eat his food with the immune
support stuff in it I've been sprinkling Vetricine on it along with his lysine
and he loves it.? Apparently vetricine tastes better than
can you guys tell me that there is a chance finley could still fight this
virus?
I can tell you that my guy came in as a stray 2 years ago weighing 10 lbs and
being tested as positive.? he's in the house, he weighs 15.5 lbs and he's doing
great.? He gets some runny eyes and sneezes
1 cc a day for 7 days and then off for 7 days.? he weighs 15.5 lbs.? After
about 3 days he'd get punky and just not feel well, stay in the bedroom and not
eat and/or throw up.
Just wondering - How much of a daily dose of interferon did you give him??
?
Gloria?
all I know is that my vet gave me a little vial with an eye dropper. From
that I draw out 1 cc and squirt it in his mouth. The vial is small, and is
only marked interferon on the label.

My guy is a very big (15.5 lb) FeLV+. he's supposed to be taking interferon
on a week and off a week. It has gotten to the point that now after about 3
days on, he seems to feel bad, he curls up and won't leave the bed all day and
won't eat. I stop the interferon and he's good to go again
The shelter where I volunteer is a no kill shelter unless the cat tests
positive for Feline Leukemia or Feline Aids. If they do, they are immediately
euthanized. That day. ?? What I'd like to do is to convince them to give me a
few days to see if I can find anyone who will adopt these cats

I agree 100% with Anita, we live in a world where more and more

anything *but* themselves. Until that changes nothing else will.
Do they hold and re-test? Cats with FIV can live a normal lifespan.
nope. Cats with FeLV+ can live a normal lifespan altho' I realize it isn't
common. But they don't retest. They test once and that's it.

The cats in the shelter where I volunteer are not feral.? They are/were
someone's pets, at least they appear to have been around humans during the time
as kittens when they adapt to human interaction.? Some were dropped, and some
are brought in.? But if the cat is FeLV+ the shelter won't
where are you located? I volunteer at a humane shelter in Tennessee and
unfortunately their current policy is to euthanize any cats that come in and
test
positive. I am trying to change their thinking :-)

he has only failed to eat today. He was eating fine yesterday.
