This is very encouraging.  I hope it turns out to be a wonder drug that could 
save a lot of lives.  Keep praying.

“I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are 
profitable to the human race or doesn’t….the pain which it inflicts upon 
unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me 
sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain

Just saw this article.
Treatment for feline leukemia virus 
http://winnfelinehealth.blogspot.com/2012/01/treatment-for-feline-leukemia-virus.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+CatHealthNewsFromTheWinnFelineFoundation+%28Cat+Health+News+from+the+Winn+Feline+Foundation%29
 
Feline leukemia virus is a retrovirus of cats that can cause cancer, anemia and 
immunosuppression. Currently, no effective treatment for FeLV infection exists. 
These researchers investigated the usefulness of an anti-retroviral drug called 
raltegrevir that was developed for treatment of HIV in humans. The researchers 
tested the drug in a laboratory setting for potential toxicity to feline cells, 
as well as the ability to inhibit the replication of FeLV in these cells. It 
was found that, at least in cell culture, this drug inhibited virus replication 
and did not cause toxic changes to the feline cells. The researchers speculate 
that this drug could be used to reduce virus replication in FeLV-infected cats 
to the point that their own immune system could eliminate the virus, 
effectively curing the infection. Many more studies are needed, but this 
research offers a promising first step. [MK]
 
Will be something we will definitely want to follow

The Rabiies vac is definitely a state thing, Then ultimately County by county. 
Makes no sense does it? If it was really about protection then ALL counties 
should require it. Rabid animals don't care about crossing a county line!! As 
far as vets giving core vaccines once a year, in my opinion it is 
irresponsible. They know better.

I just did some reading on rabies and it appears that mice and other rodents 
don't carry Rabies. Raccoons foxes and bats look to be the heaviest carriers. 
The East coast, for some reason is the largest region of raccoons carrying

The excuse is that if vaccines weren't required yearly, pet owners wouldn't

Got to talk to the boy about that.  Would be easier on my babies and cheaper.  
He knows I bring them in at the first hint of a problem so he would not have to 
worry about them never being seen.  He said once that if everyone took te care 
I do of my babies, there woul b o sick cats and dogs around.

Sounds like the mayor of silex.  They moved the town up on the hill because it 
kept geting flooded.  The had written rules about what you could and could not 
do, like no one could have more than 1 dog and no one could have a fenced area 
with dog houses.  Dogs have to be kept in house and walked on a leash.  1 man 
has 4 dogs and 4 pens for them at the back of his house and they are on somene 
else's land. And the list of stupid laws keeps changing every day.  Sure glad I 
live on a buff about 2 miles out of town, don't have to put up with that 
nonsense. i ALSO DON'T HAVE HOUSES 30' FROM MY HOUSE.  cATS AND i HAVE 25 ACRES 
TO ROAM.

There are times that I think they are more civilized than humans are.  At
