Hahaha, I had not thought of the underwear thing ... but I can not put my shoes on before putting them in carriers - well, the carriers won't happen. Definitely forget about a coat first, too. Del - Original Message - From: Barb Moermond To:

Nina, I am so sorry, and so shocked. I had no idea she was that sick. Do they think it was lymphoma? I think that lymphoma is what takes so many of our positive babies, probably more often than it is actually diagnosed. It has taken at least two of mine, and perhaps Buddy also. It is

Barbara It would help a lot if you would give us a little more information about Tom... Where did he come from...How did you discover he is FeLV+... How old is he...Does he get along with other cats..Is he people friendly... There isn't a great line of people waiting to take FeLV+ kitties...

Barbara, You have no idea how long Tom has, and neither does anyone else. There are people on this list who have had FeLV+ cats live to over 10 years old. It is rare but it does happen. I have one whose age I don't want to say because I am superstitious and do not want to jinx her, but she

Hi Barbara, Welcome to the list - sorry if it's a rocky beginning. How old is he? I would think, in Austin, you might be able to find an FELV home, either singly or with others FELV cats. However, please be aware that the virus is not a very hearty, and lots of veterinarians have different

Barbara, Nearly a year ago I ran across the same predicament. Found a SWEET stray and took her in. She tested felv positive and I already had a 10 year old negative. I was so concerned for my 10 year old but I also had compassion for the felv+ cat (Meowser). Putting her to sleep was NEVER an

Thanks Sally, Cats who are FeLV+ should not be given any vaccines, as this represents a significant stress to the immune system for even a healthy cat, and a cat who has a compromised immune system cannot respond normally as is expected. My vet requires ferals and strays to be Rabies
