Hi there,
Does anyone know anything about transport? I am trying to get these 2 FELV+

The moral of the story is that all cats coming into a home or foster home
where there are other cats, must be combo tested! It's not a huge expense in
the big scheme of things, but necessary!

My vet always treats a cat with health problems with vitamin injections for
about a week or two - vitamin B12, C, etc. - it builds up their immune
system a bit before surgery. We call it "The Cocktail". You can't imagine
how many cats' lives have been saved with these cocktails, practically

That does present a problem - that's precisely the reason why I cannot mix
the cats. I cannot take the chance that a cat getting adopted from us
might possibly infect an adopter's cat. If they were all here to stay, I
would definitely do it. I also do not mix FIV with FeLV - don't want to

Wow, Jannes. The vet advocating euthanization is a warning sign not to let

The reason I'm curious about it is because of my foster cats. Some people,
including some vets, are saying that since they've been exposed to it this long
and they tested negative recently that they should be fine and to go ahead and

I've always spay/neutered mine- No problems. Except one Felv girl I have, who
has seizures, and I have not had her spayed. Year or two old. She just seems so
fragile I couldn't put her thru it. Doesn't seem to have heat cycles, if so
very mild and unnoticeable.

Most of you have heard Dixie Louise Doodle Katt, JP's story. She came

The incubation period is supposed to be 3 months for FeLV, & 6 months for FIV,
per all the vets I've dealt with. But I always like to wait a little longer
just to be sure.
