Hi Chris
Very sorry to hear this, Stefania--I would suggest joining posting to the
FIP group, there are some people on there who are very knowledgable about
things to try to rule out with FIP diagnosis and such.
http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/FIP/ Post any test results you have.
I hope and pray
i agree with the others, sounds like thyroid. my Shalimar had hyper thyroid
and she did the same thing. she also had a habit o spitting out the pills for
it . had to give them, did radio active iodine which makes it necessary to
supplement the thyroid. got so i had to hold her and rub down

Hi Chris,
thank-you very much for sharing your story. The problem here is that in these
days I read very much on FeLV and FIV and I agree with you. My cats have
always been together (except for Trudi, who is a lone

I am certainly not diagnosing your cat. In humans a smooth
tongue is a symptom of anemia. Anemia is common in FELV cats. Are her
gums pale? I had severe anemia and my tongue was very sore as well. Could be

Thank-you Sally and all! I don't think she has

My story is very similiar to yousr. I too adopted a shelter cat who as it
turned out was positive for FIV/FELV. I think he was the source of infection
in my cats and I wound up with 4 cats dying. I am so sorry to hear this.

Hi,
Give them suppotive cats good food and lots of love.
Yes, I already use good food of quality and in fact I have this infected cat
since 2007 and he's living very well. I hope my older too will regain energy
and be well again, even if I know that their destiny will be to develop

Stef --
Sorry you're having all this trouble and worry right now.
About FIV, you are right and your vet is wrong. It is VERY hard to transmit
other than through fighting (deep bites) and sex. It's much less
contagious than FeLV, and even

Make sure there is no thyroid problem. Hair loose is a common sign of
that.

Additional thought food allergies can have this effect too. Try an
elimination diet.

Could it be that she is allergic to amoxicillin or to the anesthetic?
She developed this dermatitis two day after we stopped amoxicillin and the day
after she was sedated to take a blood test.

Most vets us an in house test for felv/fiv - the snap test. The felv/fiv snap
test is generally a pretty good test. (By the way, it does not utilize PCR,
instead it is an ELISA test). It is certainly possible, however, to get a
false positive result.
In general, you can repeat
