Hey Leslie,
You're right, the FeLV vaccinations aren't 100%
effective. I think it's more like 80% or so; not
sure. But the vaccinations, coupled with the fact
that FeLV is NOT easy to spread, makes for a good
combination when mixing pos's and neg's. My cats (3;

Hi,
Maggie, when you suggest getting an older cat, I am on board with that, that is a good idea. I know that kittens are more susceptible, but you always hope, don't you? :) So Trixie now has a littermate with her at the Humane Society, one that show that they have Manx in them, because she ha

Leslie,
Welcome! She is adorable, but I wonder if it might be a good idea for you to look for an older + cat. I'm pretty new at this but from what I understand a cat who has made it past the first 12 to 18 months as + has a better chance at living a longer life. If you found one who is closer to
Hey Leslie,
Not a weird question at all. I think if you can
handle the stress yourself if you lost any more and
you know Satchmo would love another friend, then
adopting would be right. Only you can know if you can

Yes, she is a doll!
She looks like my Torti named "Buggy"
if you like to see a photo of her let me know I can send a photo to you or anyone.
She was a rescue too at the age of 5 weeks old. I've had her for 4 yrs now.

Kerry,
Thank you so much for your thoughts. You are right, to have a support group would make a big difference.
What I wonder is, if I lost Satch, would I adopt another FeLV+ cat? I like taking in the hard-to-adopt animals, because it does feel so good, so I think that I might, but I'm not sure

My name is Leslie. My cat's name is Satchmo. He's 6 years old, I adopted him at 5 years old knowing that he had feline leukemia. My question is about adopting him a friend.

I'd agree with spaying the FELV kitty, and that's what I've done. I
took in a little 8 month old FELV kitty who was pregnant, and my
choice was to have her spayed. She came thru it with flying colors.
I give my FELV kitties daily interferon, to boost the immune system.

Janet,
As Terri and Tonya have already mentioned, many of us mix adult negs
that have been vaccinated with pos. It's a judgement call and of
course no matter what our success rate in doing this is, there's no
safer protection for your elderly cat than to not mix them together.
