Re: [Felvtalk] LTCI Rumor

2010-08-07 Thread Heidi Werber
hello, I have  a kitten that is FElV positive.  Can you tell me what LTCI is?  
Is this something I should be giving the kitten to help keep healthy?
Thanks,Heidi Werber

Hi Alice, I've not heard anything about this,and we have used it for our little 
one.  We have one dose left, so are on the verge of asking our vet to 
re-order.  Will pass along what we find.  Thanks for the heads-up.  Sara

Subject: [Felvtalk] LTCI Rumor

I am hearing that after Sept or so, the new distributors of the LTCI will only 
sell 10 packs-this is going to make it very difficult for most of us to 
afford-plus the price went up. I think they are wanting the veterinarians to 
carry the product in stock-but I am thinking most won't - Like my vet...I 
researched and found the product and begged them to order it for me. Has anyone 
else heard anything about this??

Re: [Felvtalk] LTCI Rumor (for Heidi)

2010-08-07 Thread Heidi Werber
Thank you for the information on the LTC1.  What about Interferon??
I rescued a kitten a few weeks ago and he is FelV positive, otherwise healthy 
and showing no symptoms.  I have him isolated in a room away from my other cats 
and am trying to keep him comfortable.  I am trying to find him a home where he 
can be an only cat and will be kept indoors but I know this will be difficult.  
I am feeling kind of hopeless as it sounds like many of your sweet cats didn't 
make it past 1 year.  My vet said he could live many years if kept in the right 
environment but now I am not sure this is true.
I appreciate your feedback.  I hope I can find a home for Little as he is such 
a nice boy.  If you know of any sites where I can post his pic please et me 
know as I don't ant to give up yet.
Heidi

Wouldn't it help to use PetTinic in food for anemic cats?  I use it often,
not necessarily for FIV/FeLV positive cats. Natalie

Heidi-here is a good link that describes the product:
                                     
 http://www.imulan.com/felv-fiv-treatment.html
It is from the Imulan Company and it's called LTCI. There has been increased

interest in the product for FeLV and FIV cats. I have had 2 cats on it for 
almost a year. Does it work, I don't know as both of mine are still
positive-but 
I truly believe their health has been improved with this product. We lost 
Rosie's 4 littermates last year before they reached a year old-Rosie is
turning 
2 this month!! YAY! The literature said that some cats can fight off the
virus 
and test negative. Rosie is doing great but Murphy has been struggling the
past 
2-3 weeks with anemia, but is trying hard to rally back. He became so anemic
a 
few weeks ago and I thought we were going to lose him. I think part of it
may be 
due to trying to go 2 months and more between injections. Before that-they
were 
both in the high 30s with HCT, and actually Rosie's last HCT was on 7/24 and
it 
was 46.5. I started the treatments before they became ill, some people begin
it 
when symptoms appear and they find this product out there in web searches. I

hope your sweet little baby stays healthy. As you can tell from the postings
on 
this site, many of us have lost our dear fur-children, I don't think it ever

gets easier. Alice
