Hi. You will get lots of good advice here. But most of all, try to keep
Bacardi as stress-free as possible. It seems like stress often triggers the

Get your own vet to make up a batch for you. All they have to do is order
one vial of the actual human drug InterferonAlpha, and then dilute it to the
correct dilution for cats, the instructions are available at the island pharmacy

nope, cats CAN indeed test negative on the IFA if they were tested before they had thrown off the virus. it can take up to six or seven months for a negative IFA to become positive, tho even with the IFA, 120-days is the norm.

Has he been x-rayed and/or ultrasoundedto see if there are any masses
