Gloria,
Once upon a time there was a thread on the list talking about the
possible benefits of vaccinating a pos cat. Maybe it was something that
you posted about these particular kitties from OK? Some healthy animals
have adverse reactions to vaccines of any sort, it may have more to do
no, i've never heard that it was of any benefit.

I hate to use it too - I know there are different varieties that are
preferable, and I've heard to avoid the ones that are combined with
other vaccines.
Interesting thing - I've always heard to avoid vaccinating positives
with the FELV vaccine. But I've learned to be open to other options

I had 12 cats when I found out one was positive and had been with everyone else
for months. I spent a lot of money retesting and everyone else has remained
negative. I then brought in another positive (on purpose) because I am not

I don't think anyone can give you odds on that. I would say it would be
unlikely that they will all be positive and quite possible that none will be
positive. If there is anything I have learned from this list

Hi Debbie,
I would check around with other places in your area to see if you can
find the tests cheaper. I can get a combo test here for $16 per cat,
which would be way less than $1,000.
At this point I'm not sure I'd be in a rush to test all of them
you really think there is a possibility that they won't test possitive?
If some do and some don't do they need separated, if vaccinated?

It depends on their ages. Kittens have a much harder
time throwing off the virus if exposed-about a 40%
chance they will test positive for it after 6 months.
Within that time frame, they can be in the process of
throwing it off, but after that, if they are still
testing positive, it's more
than likely not exceptionally qualified
on feline leukemia. No insult intened.

Hi Debbie,
It sounds like you and your husband are doing and have
done everything you can. That's all anyone can ask
for. Don't be so hard on yourself; you've taken a lot
on. I agree that printing off information and taking
it to your vet would be wise, although since it's so
expensive there,
what does the pts stand for?
Definitely do not allow any pts.

Hello Debbie and welcome. I'm so glad you found us, you sound like
you'll fit right in here. Most of us, and I would guess most folks that
have had to deal with felv are the type that bring in the wayward ones
off the street. Bless you and your husbands for having such open and
caring
really don't care at all about pets. It
is refreshing to hear that there are people out there that do. Thanks again.
Please stay in touch.

the main reason I don't like to vaccinate positives is I had one cat that was
very healthy despite the FeLV+ status and the vet accidently gave him the
vaccine, he went down hill immediately and then diedNOW, I doubt there was
a connection, but. it was my vets who said don't vaccinate

This is what the vet techs who work for my vet do. They get a clean
syringe and put a needle on the end. Then they inject air into the bag

As a nurse on the CRF list objected to this, thinking of humans no
