[Felvtalk] Sweet FeLV+ Maine Coon currently living outside needs home
Hi, all. I used to belong to this group a few years ago when my positives were still alive-- we lost Patches, the last of them, last September at the age of 8 or 9. ?I am writing to beg your help finding a home for an incredible positive cat who is currently living outside. I started a Trap-Neuter-Return project in my town a few months ago and we are trapping at a large apartment complex. Tonight a tenant showed me an extremely gorgeous and affectionate cat who lives outside her building. She and her neighbor feed him. Apparently he was abandoned a couple years ago when a tenant moved out. Another tenant took him in got him tested and he tested FeLV+. That tenant then moved out and reabandoned him. One of the tenants who currently feeds him can't take him in because she lives in a small apartment with negative cats. The other has no cats and takes him in for a night now and then in the winter, but will not keep him because he howls to go back outside. I am sure he would get over that in a few weeks, and don't think he should be outside another winter with his immune-compromised condition (not to mention that there are other cats? there and some people in the complex have complained about their cats getting out and coming back FeLV+). Would you consider taking this cat, or do you know someone who might? I will try to get a picture of him. He's a really great cat-- the type of cat you meet and immediately think "what a great cat!" Very personable. My house is currently full of negatives, both my own and fosters, and is divided into 4 areas with animals that can't meet, so I have nowhere to put him myself. I have use of a retired boarder's kennel for short-term holds, and can put him there temporarily, though I hate to stress him out by caging him. Will appreciate any help you can give finding this boy a home. thanks, Michelle Lerner ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
Re: [Felvtalk] New to FLV and have a cat that just tested positive...
Hi Anna, I just wanted to say "welcome" , this is a good group and a lot of help to me when my kitty tested positive at 2 years old, she had previously test negative as a kitten. I think the best advice I got was good food, low stress and lots of love. Give them the best food you can afford and as much love as you can (I know the latter will be easy, sounds like you are already there:) I had a big ole silver Maine Coon named Sylvia who passed about three years ago, I still love that name and always will. Best wishes to you and your girls, Laura --- On Mon, 10/5/09, Anna Waltman wrote: From: Anna Waltman Subject: [Felvtalk] New to FLV and have a cat that just tested positive... To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Date: Monday, October 5, 2009, 5:11 PM Hi everyone, I've been lurking around for the last day or two reading your posts. My darling Sylvia, the first cat I have owned as an adult, just tested positive for FLV on both the in-office and IFA tests. She's one of my best friends and I'm devastated; she was negative as a kitten and has lived inside for most of her life (as a little baby, she was a stray-- I adopted her from the SPCA at five months, and I know she was there for a while before I adopted her). She was given a confident all-clear by my former vet to move with me to Massachusetts and live in a multiple-cat household less than three months ago. Upon moving, it became obvious that Sylvia doesn't like being left alone in the apartment for long periods of time (prior to our move, we lived with my retired parents and their two dogs so she was almost never home alone). I decided to adopt a kitten, Beatrice, a few weeks after we moved in, after Sylvia had gotten comfortable in the apartment. So when Sylvia started meowing strangely and acting a little lethargic, I assumed it was a kitty flu but took her to the vet anyway, just to be safe, and tested her just to be absolutely sure she was still negative. What a horrible surprise. She's been living with Bea for a month or two now and they're best friends; they wrestle all the time, share food bowls, groom each other, etc. I feel sick with guilt about bringing a young kitten into a house with a FLV+ cat, and now chances are I have two positive cats to care for. Our current vet is wonderful, though, and she feels that if we vaccinate Bea ASAP and keep a close eye on Sylvia (treating her problems as they arise), there's a good chance we can keep both of them healthy for a long time. She says she has other patients and co-workers with FLV+ and negative cats living in the same household who never pass it to each other. I'm feeding them a mix of Wellness and Innova ENVO and giving the kitten multivitamins to boost her immune system and help her fight off the exposure. I'm a young graduate student in an MA/PhD program and I don't have a ton of money. These kitties had been the most stable thing in my life and this diagnosis is totally eating me up, from the inside out. I love them to pieces and want to be the best cat-parent I can to my girls (having chronic illnesses myself that significantly increase my risk of certain health problems, I'm as empathic about this as anyone). The horrible potential of this disease breaks my heart every time I think about it. My childhood cat passed away a few months before I got Sylvia, and I can't bear to lose another one like that (he was very sick for a long time before he died, but we don't know what it was. Could've been FLV or FIV; he wasn't tested every year, though he was vaccinated. He was indoor/outdoor and a fighter). What do you wish you had known when your cat was first diagnosed, if anything? If there is any advice people have, I would appreciate it, and as I gain experience caring for my girls I will share what has worked and what hasn't with anyone who asks. Many thanks and best wishes to you and your families, furry and otherwise.

Re: [Felvtalk] New to FLV and have a cat that just tested positive...
Hello Anna, I am sorry for your situation. Felv is an illusive, unpredictable and sometimes devastating disease. I think the people in this group have good advice and knowledge pertaining to this group of cats. In my experience, 2 died from the anemia and bone marrow suppression that often kills the younger cats (cats turning positive at less than one year generally do worse), 1 is doing well - she is about 6 years old and on interferon (she came to me in good shape already on interferon), the third, Autumn, nearly died about a month and half ago and is symptomically improving today. I started her on the LTCI injections (from Imulan) and Ambrotose (a mannose supplement similar to Acemannan). I have heard multiple stories of cats turning negative on this treatment. There is no known cure for the virus. Some cats do well and eradicate the virus on their own, some become asymptomatic carriers and some die from it. I wish someone would have suggested I try LTCI and ambrotose (Acemannan) initially. The LTCI injection costs about $65 weekly for four weeks and than monthly. There were very few side effects identified in the study. This treatment aid is a somewhat debated issue in this group so you may want to investigate it yourself. I have personally reviewed the literature and think there is promise in it, but others will disagree. Good luck and God bless.

Re: [Felvtalk] New to FLV and have a cat that just tested positive...
I would check out the company IMULAN and their product LTCI. It is the only approved treatment aid for FeLV and FIV. There are people who have used LTCI and have had amazing results, but every cat is different. I would really research it.
