I had a cat tested for FeLV a few weeks ago and she came
back positive. We will retest soon. She is about a year old, maybe
pregnant, and a throw away. I have never had this happen before and I have
done spayrelease for several years with feral cats. I contacted vet
who does alternative
As for the immediate future, I'd determine if she is preg., if so and her basic health is good, you might want to have her spayed anyway. Kittens born to this mom will likely test positive (at least initially) and they will be very hard to place. Plus, she really doesn't need to have kittens
Hi,
It sounds like your doing very good, boosting her immune system, and
maybe feeding a good quality food like Wellness or something similar
(something without by-products and grains). Keep stress down and think
positive. What immune boosters is the vet giving her?

PS. It can take up to 3 months for a cat to fight off the virus (I've
even known of a cat that took linger), so be patient and my motto think
positive :)

Are you saying that she's feral? Or is she a stray? Is it a light

Hmmm - well, if the kitten tests positive for FELV, then he has the
virus. I think it's an antigen test isn't it, not antibodies, for
the office Elisa test. But as I understand, his little immune system
could still throw the virus off, as you said. He should be tested
again. I really
