One option is to ask your vet to show you how to give her subcutaneous fluids, which I do all the time for my cats if needed. However, for now, it makes sense to leave her there I guess. I presume they are warming the IV fluids too, because again, with such a small kitten, it wouldn’t take much

Re: [Felvtalk] Cleaning? Retesting?

Thank you. I guess I should have phrased my question to indicate that I was concerned about spreading FeLV to my non-FeLV cats. If I understand correctly, your cats are, or were, all FeLV-positive, so there would not have been any non-FeLV cats to spread it to? I told my cousin back in

Re: [Felvtalk] Cleaning? Retesting?

I have only had FELV cats but never washed my hands after handling them. I treated all the same and have had no experience of the disease spreading to others. I have had up to 10 at a time as all who came to my house became part of my "pride". As they came to me, I took them to the vet for

[Felvtalk] Cleaning? Retesting?

Re: [Felvtalk] Baby's intro

Hi Lorraine What I have suggested to many in this group, for treatment of FeLV, is the following combination of medications: Winstrol (Stanazolol) - 1 mg twice a day Doxycycline - 1/5 to ¼ tablet (100 mg) twice a day Prednisolone - ½ 5 mg tablet, twice a day If there are problems with the

[Felvtalk] Baby's intro

Hello, I'm a new member. While caring for my cousin's cat Baby here in my home during his 2-week vacation in Mexico, we had bloodwork done ahead of the dental cleaning that my husband and I agreed to have done for her. She turned up positive for FeLeuk on ELISA, IFA, and PCR--the triple whammy.
