gave her 500 mg. capsules that we opened and mixed in with her wet food twice a

To be completly honest I have no idea what test it was. I feel like I was

Hi Quentin,
Welcome to the group.
Bad idea on the Valtrex. Don't give your kitty any
medication that your vet
has not recommended. I have never heard of Valtrex
being used on cats

Susan,
I give SD C/D to all my cats since one of them needs it to prevent crystals
forming in his urine. It is impossible to feed
that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the
world - indeed it is the only thing that ever has! ~~~ Margaret Meade ~~~

I have a sweet little black with white tip
girl and I took her to the vet to get treated and wormed. We had her tested and
she had a very faint positive for FeLV. I've been reading up on treatments and
anti virals and I was wondering if it would be a good/ bad idea to give her low
dose of
I have never heard of Valtrex. A faint positive at 4months could indicate that
she has been exposed and will fight off the virus. Your situation is very
hopeful for that to happen. In the meantime I would boost her immune system
with vitamin C and lysine. Others on the list can give you
Unless I am thinking of something else, Valtrex is a drug used to
control herpes outbreaks in humans (I only know this because
commercials are on TV all the time for it)
I've never heard of giving it to a cat.

If she has herpes, give Lysine - it's a proven winner. If I were
trying to address the FELV visue, what I usually use it Interferon or
ImmunoRegulin. Would *NOT* do Valtrex without more
I take Valtex - it IS a med for humans who have herpes infections. Never heard
of it used for animals.

Hi Quentin,
It sounds like you are just about where I am in being
informed about how to treat a FeLV+ kitten. I came to
this group to learn all I could from the people here,
who that have been here, for a while and are
experienced in caring for their Feline Leukemia
Positive Kitties.

I know people who take Lysine supplements in lieu of taking Valtrex, or another herpes medication, due to the expense of Valtrex and/or aversion to taking too much prescription medication. Lysine supplements work to keep the Herpes Simplex virus at bay (which is what oral Valtrex claims to do) and
