My stats to begin with. 11 cats 1 turned up positive and I kept her.  She lived to 7 or 8. 1 positive is probably 10 by now and is fine and dandy.   I'm down to 4 cats now.  I've lost more cats to old age reanal disease. tonya --- On Thu, 7/16/09, Sharyl cline...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Sharyl

This is wonderful for me to hear. Sammie was tested positive in May and I was such a wreck. This list has given me so much hope. Most of the information on the interest says that most cats will die within 3 years. Susan -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org

The FeLV virus is quite fragile outside of the body and doesn't live long at all. It should be perfectly safe to let the other kitties in there now. You didn't say how old she was, but she may have had it since she was a small kitten. I know how you feel, I have recently lost several of my FeLV

I, also have had several positives spayed/neutered with no problems. It is really less stressful for the girls to be spayed than to go through repeated cycles of heat. Sharyl --- On Sun, 8/2/09, Jody Butler jbutler5...@bellsouth.net wrote: From: Jody Butler jbutler5...@bellsouth.net

[Felvtalk] Introduction - Rebecca

My 2 year old cat Rebecca (Becca) was diagnosed with FeLV on Friday. A brief history: I adopted Becca, along with another kitty Katherine, from PetSmart when they were a few months old. They had both been tested FeLV negative. But I did notice that a week after I brought them home Becca

Many cats are naturally immune to FeLV. We each have to make our own decisions, but if I were in your situation I would not put Becca down and would let her continue to live with the others. I think it quite unlikely - especially after being vaccinated - that they would contract FeLV. Of
