Are you referring to Crash's Landing? They're a large no-kill in Grand Rapids 
(I think). They have a separate shelter next door for FeLV and FIV cats called 
Big Sid's. I support CL when I can. They really care, and Dr. Jen (the vet

Are you referring to Crash's Landing? They're a large no-kill in Grand Rapids 
(I think). They have a separate shelter next door for FeLV and FIV cats called 
Big Sid's. I support CL when I can. They really care, and Dr. Jen (the vet

Thank you, everyone.  I'm still trying to catch the mother cat from the park 
and am worried about her status.  When I catch her I'll get her tested myself.  
But positive or negative, I don't have room for another cat.  I found out about 
the park from my husband.  The conversation started, "I don't want another cat. 
 If I told you I know where there's a mother cat and kittens, where could they 
go?"  I had to find someplace to take them before he showed me where they were. 
 The local humane society changed management last year.  They are now no kill 
except for FIV and FeLV.  Before that they killed everything.  The shelter I 
used to work with also changed management, but that one was for the worse.   

Both my husband and I have health issues.  Taking in another cat is not an 
option.  Is anyone from the group in Michigan?  I'm in St. Clair County.  There 
are 2 rescues on the west side of the state that take FeLV+ cats, but both are 
full.  

I can't just abandon the mother cat.  Someone already did that.  But I'm making 
an almost 50 mile round trip every day to feed her.

Current thinking seems to be that the odds of a regressive infection resulting 
in FeLV-related disease is “unlikely”. This is according to the 2008 AAFP 
Retrovirus Guidelines. Focal infections where the virus is restricted to 
certain tissues are rare, and these infections also seem unlikely to result in 
FeLV-associated disease.
