Nori did not want to eat by herself so they are syringing food. They started another medication for nausea, although she does not vomit, they think that may be why she does not eat. Blood work showed changes in neutrophils (bizarre core?), veternary says it can be from leukemia. The result of

Hi, Patricia, I’ve asked fiv-healthscience members using RetroMad1 for FeLV cats to contact me if it’s okay to pass their email addresses along to you. In the meantime, this is what fiv-healthscience website manager Joel Kehler has written about RetroMad1:
