Re: [Felvtalk] Getting myself ready for the battle-El
Kasia, I've usually tried to do a capsule a day for my FeLV+ cat, but that doesn't work well now that she doesn't eat paté style foods. I don't think it tastes that great, and it's hart to hide the flavor in Tiki Cat. Need to figure out what I can do. Best to you, Jack, and the other cats, Lance On Jun 7, 2013, at 11:14 AM, kasia mosko wrote: > Hi El, > > I actually have at home Transfer Factor Classic, I used it last year for my > late cat.

Re: [Felvtalk] Getting myself ready for the battle-El
Hi Kasia, I've used the classic formula but haven't been impressed with it, so I only use the TF plus Tri Factor for FeLV and other sick cats. It is expensive, especially if you're giving it to several cats. I wouldn't use it on a cancer kitty though because you don't want to stimulate the immune system. I haven't used ImmunoRegulin as it's not available here.I don't use L-lysine but if I did I'd probably give an Arginine supplement too.El From: kasia...@yahoo.com To: felvtalk@.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Getting myself ready for the battle-El Hi El, I actually have at home Transfer Factor Classic, I used it last year for my late cat.

It's the best immune booster I've tried. Also, I use the Agaricus Blazeii. Although all of the FeLV+ cats that I've taken in have come very ill and emaciated, once all the infections are treated and their immune system is built up, they haven't had for a few years. Mattie is the third one that has gotten lymphoma though after being healthy for 4 1/2 - 5 years. That seems to be the pattern here. One came with endocarditis but he lived 5 years with the right medical treatment and the transfer factor.

A few options you may want to discuss with a holistic vet: Thorne Research - ImmugenAtlas World - Agaricus Bio for Dogs and Cats4Life - Transfer Factor Plus You wouldn't necessarily want them on all of that at the same time, but those are a few more options. The reason I think working with a holistic vet is a good idea is that they can help you coordinate an approach as well as vouch for supplements that they use.

You might want to discuss this with a holistic vet in your area. Everything you mention is great to have. I don't think you'll need much else. What you mainly want to do is beware of how the cats are behaving, how well they eat and drink, how well they use the box, and how everyone generally feels. Your eyes, ears, and attention to detail are more useful than anything you could buy. That said, be careful not to scrutinize too much. As others have said, FeLV+ cats get illnesses that may have nothing to do with FeLV, and those are often treatable.

Hi El, I actually have at home Transfer Factor Classic, I used it last year for my late cat. What is the dosage, do you remember? So, your kitties were ok for about five years after being diagnosed?
