Re: [Felvtalk] Charle
May I recommend you to a cancer group that I joined after all chemos failed and I was once again given 3 months. I vowed never to do chemo again and began looking around. There is a tonic (internal) and a salve (external) I am using it now. the group is 2053-proven-alternati...@googlegroups.com. At the very least, they can give lots of support.

Have him checked foe medistinal lymphoma, it is a very aggressive canser, very treatable but treatment must be started ASAP.

Wow - good for you for doing right by Buttercup! You'll go to heaven on that one ;-) From: Felvtalk [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Lee Evans Sent: Sunday, September 15, 2013 4:04 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Charle I don't know why some vets are so uninformed but I have had seemingly intelligent vets tell me that this or that cat had FIP because the cat had a high titer for the corona virus. This is NOT FIP. Many cats get a corona virus. Some actually become ill from it but with regular symptoms of illness - high fever, anorexic, lethargic but not the usual fluid filled chest cavity that is one of the signs of FIP (but could also be heart disease). FIP is not all that common in cats, even in strays. The few cats I rescued with genuine FIP were NOT FeLv+ or FIV+. It seems to me that vets want to blame every illness on cats who are positive for one of the combo test disorders. Sometimes I suspect that the vets want to give us a reason to dispose of the cat without having a guilty conscience since it's "terminally ill" anyway. I had a cat with a high titer for the corona virus. She was diagnosed with FIP. What she had was a high fever. She had a miscarriage (pregnant stray calico, very friendly) in my backyard. She was burning up with fever. They said to have her euthanized. I said no. They said FIP, I said no. She had to be spayed on an emergency basis because the rest of the fetuses were not alive. They returned a live almost bald skeleton cat to me and told me she had about a 10% chance of living through the week because she had FIP. I said she did not have it. Took home Buttercup, syringe fed her for almost a month. Flea combed her every day in the isolation room she inhabited in my house. She began eating on her own after a month. Her fur grew back. She began high-jumping after bouncing balls. She grew fat. I took her back for her rabies shot and vet was astonished. Said she had recovered from FIP. I said she had recovered from a corona virus infection. She was eventually adopted.My FeLv+ cats never had FIP. Some actually fought off the FeLv virus and now test negative.
