[Felvtalk] Feline leuk.

[Roxanne Smith]

I need some opinions I currently have one feline leukemia cat and someone as of 
now is going to give me there leukemia cat. they changed their mind for about 3 
weeks now. My question is for two years I've not told anyone that I have had 
and have a cat with feline leukemia I don't want people to judge me. But I feel 
bad cuz I'm not embarrassed to own a feline leukemia cats. My current cat is 
now two years past his diagnosis. Do I share with my friends and then Facebook 
or do I maintain keeping the secret___

[Felvtalk] feline leuk and shaken cat syndrome ??

[Roxanne Smith]

It has been awhile since I have looked at my emails and or participated in this 
group-but I am desperate for some help and answers, of which I am not even sure 
I explain all in an email.Here goes, another one of my feline leuk cats died 
yesterday (Monday) AM.She dropped to 6.4 pounds, lost a pound in one month-has 
not really been eating for days, keeping to herself, hiding, but would sit by 
me. The last two or three days she would no longer sleep with me.I went to 
Florida a couple of weeks ago, had a babysitter come in daily to check on 
her-and she appeared to be doing well but starting going downhill, Neveah--cat 
lost about one pound in a month time period.So this is where I really need 
help-and please pass on to see additional answers. I have noticed only a few 
people ever answer or respond to emails but I can say much as I never do. :.(So 
I took Neveah to the ER Monday AM, as her temp dropped to 98.5, she could not 
move, and her rt eye was dilated and would not go back to normal and left eye 
appeared to be fine. Sunday my friend was in the room with her for hours and 
noticed the cat Neveah was acting/walking not correctly. Is anyone every heard 
of shaken cat syndrome-is it possible my friend dropped Neveah, or shook her in 
the room and caused her to have a blood clot-yes I am grasping here.As with 
everyone I feel bad, should I have been more aggressive in giving her sub q 
fluids, obviously too late now, she is gone.I have requested her latest blood 
panel for my records, but I know her kidney panels were not good. Is anyone in 
this group but any chance from the Milwaukee area/ Or there any vets in this 
group, whom would be willing to speak with me.Please be as honest as 
possible-or if you need more information before you answer please let me know 
that as well

[Felvtalk] feline leuk

[Roxanne Smith]

Hi all, I am in a rescue group, and one of our mommas came back as "slightly" 
positive per the vet, I must say that confuses me as the test was a combo 
test... Thoughts???In addition, she has two three week old babies, opinions on 
whether or not they should be separated???

[Felvtalk] Eagle foster cat

[Roxanne Smith]

This was a beloved foster. Not felv. However I need to express myself somewhere 
as I  am depressed. He was eight months old and died Thursday on the way to 
door county. I was going out of town and needed to bring him with as he was on 
meds and was in congestive heart failure.  I think he had a fatal heart attack. 
I feel if I would have left him home he would not have died. My choice killed 
him.___

Margo, why did you decide against Retrovir/AZT.I still have two with feline 
leuk, and am having a hard time dealing with the loss of Tiffany. I feel as if 
the grief is overwhelming me. :.(

Retrovir is AZT.
 
No, I decided against that.

I do have immunoreglin in reserve...

[Felvtalk] Tiffany

[Roxanne Smith]

Thanks to all those whom gave wonderful advice on Tiffany-unfortunately, she 
had went downhill the last several days and I chose to let her go--Tiffany 
could no longer fight the battle. I still have two left with feline leuk.  I 
saw someone recommended to someone else about keeping a journal of good things 
which I like cuz right now all I can think of is what I should have done 
better.

Re: [Felvtalk] Tiffany

[Roxanne Smith]

Thanks to all who has given advice. We went to vet last night and her blood 
levels have improved. However, Since December she is down 4 lbs. She purrs and 
is a good girl. I will keep moving forward until Tiffany wants to leave me. Due 
to her lack of eating they want to put in a side trach tube... I am not 
comfortable with this due to her state. I dont want her sedated in case 
she passes away from sedation. A lot of vets in Milwaukee Wisconsin where 
Tiffany and I live are incompetent about feline leuk.and treat us like we are 
cootie filled.. I get it she is sick and feline leukemia is dangerous but dont 
disrespect my child. I plan to use the advice given to me. ___

[Felvtalk] Tiffany

[Roxanne Smith]

In the last two weeks my poor Tiffany has had three blood transfusions. Vets 
and nurses all feel she has a will to live.  We just need to get over this 
hump. She will now be on epogen. Any feedback is welcome. She was diagnosed 
with feline leukemia a year ago. Has anyone had a feline tgat lived awhile with 
feline leukemia... Thanks___

Re: [Felvtalk] Feline Leukemia How Contagious?

[Roxanne Smith]

I hope this is the way I am to send I have three that are feline leuk pos and 
the rest are not, they have been vaccinated about four months ago, and I want t 
re integrate with the other members, everyone is stressed being separated.  I 
had one die in Feb of 2015--did not know he had it. But I am a little afraid to 
put everyone together

I have wondered exactly the same thing. I've had two FelV+ cats with
my other 8 neg. cats for over 5 years. They neg. cats were vaccinated
only once, and none have ever gotten sick.  Of the 2 FelV + cats,
one lived to the age of 7 and suddenly died with no prior illness.
The other 7 year old cat (her sister) is still fine.  One of my vets
told me it was very difficult for a grown cat to get FelV, but a
kitten born with it from a positive mother almost always dies. 

I had a litter of 4 pos. kittens and all of them died during the
first year of their lives. It was terribly heart breaking.

 Annie has been with me over 4 years now and at first, I vacinnated
 all the others .  2 years ago, I stopped that and everyone is
 healthy, bright eyed and happy.  I am convinced that Annie really
 is not positive, just a tremendeous amount of stress that happened
 just before I got her.  She has never shown any signs or symptoms
 of any disease.  The rest of the cats are healthy.
