Re: [Felvtalk] new positive kitten/QUESTION
I've mixed for years. You might want to search the archives for mixing as this is a common question you will find lots of info. I always make sure any cat that hs tested positive has 2 negative Elisa tests b4 feeling confident.

Re: [Felvtalk] new positive kitten
If you are worried about costs, and it is available in your area, give Care
Credit a try. If you pay the bill before the promotonal period is up, you don
not pay interest, just original charges. www.carecredit.com I have been using
it for several years now. I even use it for my dentist - that is te one that
ran up my total, 2 root canals and crows within 4 month. They are the only
charges I am paying interest on, they are at 14%. It is worth a try.

I understand about the vet bills, we had no work last year and a bunch of
empty rentals with mortgages on them. It's been tough. When I found out
Fletch had Felv, I was panicked, thinking all of my cats were going to get
it, especially since I had not vacd for it. I saw no reason to since all my
cats are inside and never ever go out plus I'm not a very big vaccine fan
except the core vaccines, and that is only every 3 years. I bought Fletch in
to bottle feed him and decided to keep him because he was blind in one eye
and very little sight in the other. Felv didn't cross my mind. He appeared
very healthy until he was neutered, and the stress of that set it all off. I
had everyone tested and vaccinated just in the last couple months. That what
credit cards are for, right?? (-: Good luck to you, it's impossible not to
get attached.

He tested positive, but it is not in his bone marrow. I have everyone separated, and am looking for a home. I know may people mix positive with negative cats, can you please tell if there are success stories out there or if negative cats became positive.

[Felvtalk] new positive kitten
Message body I was apart of this list 09/2000 when my husband and I adopted 3 kittens, and all tested positive. We lost little Vinnie at 8 months due to lymphoma, Molly developed lymphoma and we treated it. She lived 4 years, the lymphoma never came back, the feline leukemia took her life. Toots lived 9 years, no problems until the last month of his life he developed bone cancer. All 3 of my babies received interferon and dimethylglycine every night. Two years ago we adopted 2 more kittens, they were negative. This past Friday my neighbor's daughter found a cute orange tabby kitten and asked us if we wanted him. He tested positive, but it is not in his bone marrow. I have everyone separated, and am looking for a home. I know may people mix positive with negative cats, can you please tell if there are success stories out there or if negative cats became positive.

Re: [Felvtalk] new positive kitten
I have 2 positives, one of them over 12 years old, the other about 2 or 3. Both of them have been intermingling with my negatives (currently 8 of them) for years. I keep the negatives up to date on vaccinations and haven't yet had one turn positive although I kept the very young cats away from them until they were older and thru the full series of vaccinations.
