Finally I was able to trap Whimsy and got him fixed, etc. He turned out to
be FeLV positive, but seemingly
The sunroom would be a wonderful solution. Others on this list can
address the health issues. If he is separated, I would not be
concerned personally. I would have a baseline blood test done (your
vet may have already done this.) A few years ago Dixie came into my
life much the way

'dinner w/ Whimsy' and he looks at me so longingly now when I leave him. He's

hi Mary Christine,
Yes, he was given his basic shots, but I wasn't sure quite how/where Panleuk

for the vets to handle, and would have
I was in Louisville with Dixie (I have a home there) and I had the
luxury of timemy wonderful vets at Middletown Animal Clinic were
choking when they phoned me with the news. They kept Dixie safe (I am
very sure Dixie didn't feel safe) while I tried to work things out in
my mind and

OK.try
yes, I worry about the stress of vet visits/change on his immune system.
remarkably, he didn't hold it against me after I got him fixed, had him recover

I've had many FeLV cats over the last 10 years. I've never separated them from
my negative cats. One of my FeLV negative cats was FIV positive. I vaccinated
for FeLV every 6 months on the advice of my vet - won't mention her name, but
