Amy,
Epogen is very effective for treating non-regenerative anemia. Treatment is
not started until the HCT or PCV is below 20 and usually in the mid-teens. The
Anemia group I gave you the link for has more info on treatment protocol.

Hello everyone,
Does anyone have a good source for powdered vitamin C for cats. The shelter I
volunteer for is looking to add vitamin C with the lysine and we are looking
for a source that is tried and true.
Thank you,

I have Sammie on MEGA C PLUS from Belfield website. I have been
sprinkling this and AC-11 onto his food two times a day. I have been
doing this since May so I don't know if it is working or not. Sammie is
very healthy (as of today) but I'm trying to keep his immune system
healthy.
I would keep doing what you're doing, 27% isn't horrible. Be sure
and keep up the pet tinic, is he getting folic acid too it isn't in pet
tinic and is needed for building new blood.
I wouldn't panic yet, just keep a close eye on him and think positive.

Amy. I haven't had any success once they start to
fail.
He isn't getting a folic acid supplement but he does get some in his EVO cat
food. I'm almost done with the bottle of Pet-Tinic and then I'm going to try
Nutrived.

Thanks for the info. I've joined the anemia group and am reading up on it.
Has anybody on this list tried the Epogen for a leuk pos cat that is anemic? I
read a lot about Epogen being very effective for anemia and I read about people
using it for CRF. Just wondering what sort of experiences
Great, I think as long as he seems to feel fine and his HCT doesn't
start dropping I would be too concerned yet. All kitties are
individuals and maybe that is a decent HCT for him, wouldn't want it to
get much lower though. Fred's (CRF) HCT has been between 24% and 29%
for the last 3 years
Bailey was on epogen for almost 6 months when he became anemic, it
brought his HCT from a low of 15% back up to 40% within 6 weeks or so.
When he passed he was still on a maintanence dose of epogen once a week
and his HCT was holding at 33%.

PS. His anemia was related to his positive status. My vet thinks the
virus activated in his bone marrow and that is what brought on the
anemia, he developed pancreatic cancer in the 6 months we were trying to
figure out what was going on. It was obvious something was still wrong
because
Brought my new kitty home from the pound on Sat and found out this morning she
is Feline pos. WE were given the choice to return her or have her put to
sleep..orbring her home..
WE decided to bring her home...Although we may only have her for a short
time...She will be loved and cared
You made a great choice, FeLV+ make some of the most loving kitties
I have ever had the privilege of being owned by. My Bailey was a real
smoocher.
