Good day to you,
I am new to your forum. 2 weeks ago a sweet tomcat decided that he wanted
to join our group of 6 cats. Since umber 7 seemed a bit too much I found
him a new owner but before given her this lovely guy. I went for a check up
at the vet. He saw that he suffered from amnesia and

Hi Lance,
thanks so much for your reply, very much appreciated. I checked on the
internet and found 10 ug at eur 152,00 at a webshop. Is that a price which

feeling better correlates to a rise in red blood cell values?

Virbagen Omega is recombinant feline interferon, a much better choice
than human interferon. Somewhat expensive, I think. A 5-pack of 10MU
is approximately 430 Euros from Abbeyvet exporter in the UK. Here is a
link to the exporter. Only a veterinarian can place the order, but
Dear Lance,
Thanks again for all your help. I am considering to give him the Virbagen
Omega. He is only a very tiny guy so the costs would be ok. My vet is not
convinced about the effect of interferon and that in respect to the total
cost, he wanted to try the cheaper way first. Wally is really
Don’t worry. Your vet would have to order any of these drugs for you, so you
won’t be the only one involved in the decision.
Here in America, we still have vets who advocate euthanizing these cats. If I
had euthanized my Ember when I discovered she was FeLV+, I would have missed

One of the vets here told someone with an FELV cat, that she could use
interferon alpha as an injection. He didn't mention low dose ORAL
interferon alpha.
It's been my understanding that the interferon was absorbed in the
back of the throat.
