Hi all,
I'm new to the forum and here to help my father with his felv positive
kitten.
She is on EVO, but was wondering if a raw food diet would be better
for her immunity?
Any experience with an optimal diet or feedback would be great.
Thanks,
Saehwa

otherwise. She had a poor appetite though for the most part. She is completely
isolated from the other kittens we rescued, and my Dad is super vigilant about
washing hands, keeping all areas and bedding, food, etc. separate...

I just wanted everyone to know that just b/c your kitty tests positive on the
ELISA, even twice, at month or more long intervals, it doesn't mean your kitty
is FeLV positive. I am seeing adoption ads for people who give the ELISA test
once, and think the kitten has to be adopted out and can't
How did you get the rescue to take them? Are they calicos or an
atypical type? I called 16 places all turned me down. I'm not the one
who abandoned these kittens my dad found, but I get treated just the
same as an owner relinquishing their cats!

The ELISA test takes a blood sample from the lower leg, and is
inexpensive. It's not that accurate, as there are false positives and
sometimes false negatives. We had 2 three month old kittens who became
negative within 1 month, and one that became negative 3 months later.

Our vet told us to hold off on both shots and spay surgery until the
final diagnosis. It stresses their systems and makes them weak,
thereby making it harder for them to fight off the disease...

This is where a pet trust and someone to adopt your kitties in these
events would be important.

About a year ago, stray calico kitty that we fostered, and found a great home
for had such a bloated belly when we saw her, we thought she was pregnant! I
thought she was 99.999% pregnant, that is how large her stomach was. We took
her to a local vet, and they offered to do an ultrasound and pal
