[Felvtalk] Eliot Spitty and Mr. Tux - grrrreat news!

2011-06-09 Thread Natalie
My two FeLV boyz were given the IFA test on Monday afternoon., and we were
eagerly awaiting results, although I wasn’t setting myself up for any
miracles.

Last night, just as I sat down and started giving one of our renal failure
cats her daily fluids, the phone rang: It was my vet, but I couldn’t get to
the phone.  He did not leave a message, and when I called back, hospital was
already closed.  I just got a call from the receptionist….she told me that
the test results were NEGATIVE!  (Retesting of Sox, a NJ FIV cat, came
back positive again – the poor cat has painful stomatitis!)

For two long years, Eliot was all alone, then I was able to find FeLV
positive Mr. Tux in NJ!  They’ve been together for 1 ½ years.  All our cats
have access to outdoor enclosures…..they did not, and I was desperately
trying to figure out how I could accomplish that.  No need to worry about
that anymore – I will get them into the “general population” with access to
a nice big outdoor enclosure to use as they please!

Are they positive on the Elisa, just not the IFA?

Yes!
Now the question is, did they shed the virus, or was the first test result 
false?
I'm just so happy, I don't care - but it would be nice to know how this whole 
thing works!
I wonder how many cats there are out there that aren't really positive and are 
getting killed for nothing..
