In June we adopted two cats a young black female(Spicy) and a orange female
(Sunny) from animal control. Our local shelter was overrun with cats and
begging people to come adopt. When we took them to the vets a week after being
adopted the receptionist asked if we wanted them tested. I did no
always follow a positive ELISA test. The ELISA tests have a reputation for
false positives.
I will say that she does have a chance of clearing the virus. How long ago was
Spicy originally tested?
Thanks!

Hi,
A couple of weeks ago I posted about my cat Spicy who I had adopted from animal
control unaware she hadn't been tested for FELV/FIV. I was questioning whether
to get her a friend or not. Last week I had her blood sent out to confirm if
she really had FELV. Well her results came in yest
ever had
in 30 years that has the leukemia. So, it is all new to me also. Dot

Hi Dot,
s downright crazy! It is so hectic. My husband and i have
been stressed all summer since Chloe got the virus in June. I don't know how
we'd ever go away - I don't know who could deal with all this. I need to find
Chloe a home. How do you manage keeping them all apart?

Hi Jamielynn:
I adopted a cat from ACCT last year without knowing they do not test unless
requested by the adopter. My cat turned out to be FELV+ she was with my other
cats for a week. My vet wanted me to put her to sleep but I couldn't. I
contacted the Best Little Cat House near Pittsburg
With kittens there is very good chance they will come back negative. My girl
Spicey was 10 months old and had been at the shelter for almost two months. I
had her tested again and it was found that the Leukemia was in her bone. I'm
just thankful that any new addition I always take to my vet r
The Best Little Cat house in PA takes in FELV+ cats you could try them.
