Hi Sue, Glad you have found our site. It's a great one! You might consider upping the L-lysine dose for your kitty. I adopted a kitten last February that had severe corneal ulcers (had to have one eye removed before we adopted her). After I took her home, I tried everything the vet gave me (anti-viral drops, like Viroptic, and antibiotics). Nothing worked. Then I started Smookie on 500 mg., 2x a day, and I couldn't believe the ulcer started going away! It took a while. After her ulcer cleared up, we stopped the lysine (she is not FeLV+). She's been great since. Make sure your lysine does not contain propylene glycol; it affects kitty's blood.
I don't have any advice concerning the dental work, other than you are going to be the best judge of what's best for Shane. If the dental IS definitely needed to head off a potential problem later on, then it's probably best to take care of it now, rather than when kitty might be going through some other problem associated with the FeLV. :) Wendy ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
