I'm now buying my cat litter at the hardware store. I pick up a 40lb bag of wood stove pellets for $4.99...it doesn't mask odors quite as well has the pine pellets (Feline Pine, Pet Smart's brand), but still better than all those perfumy cat litters. I can change it more often and still save $$$.
Hi Kristina,
You've certainly come to the right place; you'll never find a more supportive, knowledgable group, as others have said, I'm sorry you had to find us.
Do you know what tests were done on your two positives? Did they do the test in the office (typically an ELISA) or did they send it
Right now, I've split the cats up. But I think it will be only a temporary thing; at least until I have the other cats vaccinated and retested. I attempted to call my vet today to see her, but she is off until Wednesday. She thinks I should keep them separated permanently. I don't think she's got

Lucy had her 30 day x-ray today, a little early, and her bladder stone is
much, much smaller! So the plan is to keep her on the food (S/D) and the meds

They've done the in lab test on 4 of my cats. The one that was the sickest was sent to a lab. Thor, the sick kitty, is getting better it seems, I don't want to jinx anything. I do plan on having all my cats retested in about a month. Luna, the littlest guy who we suspect is the carrier, seems
Just wanted to mention that a cat bite is a much more effective way
for the virus to spread than just air, food and water. That injects
it into the other cat. The FELV virus is very fragile, as I
understand it, and will only live a short time in air - seconds, as I
understand, unlike other
Hi Kristina - just wanted to mention also - watch out for vets who
want to euthanize your kitties. There's a lot of variation in
knowledge and attitude among vets. One may be supportive and work
with your FELV cats, but another may just want to euthanize. Very
scarey going to different
Dear Michelle,
I'm happy to hear some good news about Lucy and hope she continues to improve. I'm sorry to hear Pepsi is not doing better. I know how you feel; one gets so numbed that it's hard for the good news to penetrate the seeming walls of bad news. Hang in there and give Lucy a smooch from
My vet is dead set against it. I'm glad. I'm just having a difficult time deciding what to do. So many people have stated that they've mixed their cats back up, but I haven't read one study that recommends that. As-a-matter-of-a-fact, they're all against it. I guess I need more input from people

Don't feel bad about not having given interferon to those you lost to

don't give it to Patches and Ginger (because it stresses them too much) and so

Thanks, Michelle - I got them as kittens, and I do feel that they would
