Re: [Felvtalk] a newbie
There is information on the main page you should read. I am one that mixed positives and vaccinated adult negatives. The key here is adult. Kittens are very susceptible to FeLV. I would not recommend mixing until the kittens are at least 1 year old and current on their FeLV vaccine. JMO Sharyl From: "cer...@new.rr.com" To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Monday, April 22, 2013 11:43 PM Subject: [Felvtalk] a newbie Hi everyone: I just joined up, this is my first post. To be brief, I volunteer at our local animal shelter, and just adopted a FeLeuk+ girl. I have worked with them at the shelter, but never had one in my home, so I joined up to get some tips and help, when I need it. She is about 2 years of age, named Raja, very pretty, and also very sweet, and a happy girl. The shelter had sent in an IFA test on her, to see where she stands, and we are waiting for the results of that. I have just switched to an integrative vet, and plan to take Raja to her after we get the results. I also have 8 other cats and 1 rat, all of which came from the shelter (fallout from volunteering), and I am usually fostering for them as well, usually cats, but I’ve also had rabbits, ferrets, a hedgehog, a hamster, and rats. Now I have a mama and her 6 babies, which were born here. Of course Raja has her own room, with the rat in his cage to keep her company. Before joining I had never heard of mixing them with non leuk cats-I find this interesting. Not sure I would have the guts to do it, though. I was wondering-are there files on the home site that I can look through before I start asking questions that have probably been asked here a million times? Thanks so much for any future help.

We have a feline holistic vet coming to the house on Thursday to look at Kitty and look at integrating more supplements and raw/homemade food to her diet.

Re: [Felvtalk] Turkey Vulture OT
Enjoyed hearing about your turkey vulture. Wow! I used to do wildlife rehab and had two young red tailed hawks who were brought to me when the tree their nest was in was cut down. They ate an entire raw chicken every day! My neighbor thought they needed bird seed and brought me some :-) She was old and meant well I guess, but those hawks had no desire for bird seed!
