Hi,
We have someone interested in adopting our FeLV+ boy and it sounds like a great
home, but the gentleman smokes. Does anyone know if this would be a
considerable risk for a FeLV cat? I know smoke isn't good for humans or cats,
but I'm wondering if the FeLV would complicate matters. Other tha

Lorrie,
I'm late chiming in here. I can't help you with Acarexx, but look into
FishMox for the clavamox. It can be ordered without a prescription and from
what I was told, it's the same as clavamox. I even ordered it for myself
once when I had an infected tooth.

. A friend gave me the recipe for this. She
rescues wildlife as well as dogs and cats. She buys Ivermectin
injectable for cattle and swine. Then she uses two drops mixed
with two drops of mineral oil in each ear. She says this works even
better than Acarexx. A vet tech gave her this info.

One of our rescues tested positive at the time he was neutered. The vet went
ahead and did the surgery. That was about a year ago. He was adopted in
September and was fine at that time - and still is as of the last update I
received.
I'm not saying that neutering couldn't trigger a problem, but

Wow, that's great news that she's tested negative. I'm so happy for you.
For my own peace of mind, I would insist on an IFA test before integrating
her into my household. If your vet won't do it, there's probably another vet
around who will.

on their cats. I thought this was extremely dangerous. I remember watching
an episode of Emergency Vets or one of those shows on Animal Planet where a
