If a cat is to be relinquished to any organization please do remember to ask
questions on funding, nonprofit status, how many cats they have, how long they
live, do they separate FIV from FeLV, do they medicate, etc or this cat may end
up in such a good situation where a bathroom is preferred.
I have used a vaporizer in a small bedroom with kitty (it did help!) and also
heard some people putting congested kitties in bathroom and running shower till
hot and steamy.

Respectfully, I disagree.
Quoting from this article,
http://www.castawaycritters.org/info/display.php?PageID=157
Some caretakers believe that placing cats that initially test positive for
either FIV, FeLV or both, together is a viable option. It is important to keep
in mind that the cats
I disagree on a few points.
The article on the Castaway Critters site is not that old - perhaps 3 or 4
years at most. I have spoken via email with Dr. Levy on several occasions - in
fact, in late 2008, regarding this very issue.
Some recent info from Dr. Levy and link to her info - also
Best thing to do is ask how long cats live once they go to a sanctuary, any
sanctuary and if they are medicated or vaccinated at all. If they have a limit
of number of cats they take in also and how they are funded.
And of course, visit.

Maybe it is not such a bad idea if checking out a sanctuary to ask how long the
cats typically live. As well as how they are funded and what happens to the
cats should something happen to them, etc.

Windows Live: Make it easier
I wasn't following this string but just so you know, unless things have
changed...this sanctuary does not separate FeLV positive from FIV positive
cats. Also, if at all possible, it is best for kitty to live in a home and not
be exposed to so many other cats with illnesses. He or she will live
Wouldn't it depend on quality of life? Any sanctuary should be checked out
prior with a personal visit and some questions.

Respectfully Patrica, I could not agree less. A positive result does not mean
death is imminent. A healthy cat can suddenly become ill - just like people -
does that mean that cat should be euthanized? This is a what if scenario.
You have done marvelous things in placing all of those cats.
Do they hold and re-test? Cats with FIV can live a normal lifespan.
Ethically, killing cats who test initially positive or even confirmed positive
but who are not suffering is wrong on so many levels. Maybe they need to look
up the definition of euthanasia.
