Dee, I'm sosorry to hear about your wasted vet trip. Let me tell you, I know EXACTLY what you are talking about. I always felt as if Angel were treated differently because of her FeLV+ status. It is VERY frustrating and I wish vets would become more educated as far as this disease is
Hello!I was in your position not too long ago. I adopted a beautiful siamese kitten who ended up testing postive for FeLV. The vet wanted me to euthanize her, but I couldn't. I have two other cats at home who are negative. As soon as I found out Angel was pos. I had them all eat and drink from
I've been a petsitter for my neighbor for 9 years now...(she is a flight attendant). As a part time job, she worked at a vet's office for many years. So, I have learned a lot about cats from her. The reason why your cat is spraying is because he is not neutered. It is not considered a

Hi Kayte and welcome to the group!I live in Arizona and for some reason most of our vets here are scared of the disease and don't really have a lot of knowledge about it. At the time, Angel had no symptoms at all. It was just the fact that she tested positive. There is no way I was going to

Thanks everyone for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. Angel died peacefullyat home. I had a feeling she didn't want to be taken to the vet to be put down. I am just so heartbroken as I had only had her for less than two months and she was only 5 months old. She seemed to be doing so good
Does anyone know if hip problems are associated with FeLV? Angel went to bed just fine and got up in the morning almost unable to walk. It's as if her legs are coming out from under her. We have an appointment with a new vet today @ 3:00. I am hoping for good news. I have no idea what could've
Well, Angel's "hip" problem turned out to not be her hip. The vet felt a big, swollen bump near her bottom and tail. He took a syringe and drained out a bunch of white colored stuff. He looked at it under the microscope and thinks it is cancer cells. He says she is in a lot of pain and this would
Phaewryn,That is my thought, exactly. I would love to keep her alive with me but I want what is best for her. The vet said she may not even be able to go to the bathroom by herself..that I may have to pick her up and put her in the litterbox and then take her out-for the rest of her life. He

Hi Nina,The only thing is, the vet I originally took Angel to wanted to euthanize her. I don't think he would be very helpful with finding a specialist. His thoughts were that Angel is a "spreader", so do away with the problem. It saddens me how easily they recommend euthanasia. I am

I agree with you 100%, Catatonya. After talking to this receptionist lady, my sister was a bit freaked out, so I had to explain to her that Felv is not airborne. What's frustrating is that we know how to treat human leukemia and aids, but have no clue how to treat cats. It seems silly.

Gina,When Angel tested positive on July 17, I had asked the vet the same question and he said he wouldn't even bother giving Angel another test. I was appalled. I am still looking for a "good" vet who will feel comfortable treating Angel. I will be watching to see what responses you get about
That is a GOOD point! The vet that we went to said it is "unusual" for a kitten to test positive for felv...but then I brought up the point that they don't even routinely test kittens...they don't test them unless you ask for it. So, who knows how many kittens/cats actually have it and aren't

Many of the people here will be able to answer your questions. This isa great board. After the vet walked up to me and told me that Angel tested positive, he said I may want to think about euthanizing her. I said, "Can't we wait and give her the second test?" He said "there probably isn't much

Hello! No, actually, her vet told her to wait and get the kitten tested again. What's funny is, I usually do not go to this vet...he was recommended by two of my sisters. He was nice, but didn't want to "waste time" on a kitten that could be sick."Rosenfeldt, Diane" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
