Hi Caroline,
I can't tell you about the archives, but I can tell you about FIP and FIV.
FIP is a rare mutation of a coronavirus that almost all cats that have been
around other cats, shelter cats, etc have been exposed to. One of my vets
puts the exposure rate to coronavirus at 95% at our local
here's the short answer:
FIV is almost always transmitted through DEEP, PENETRATING BITES (the kind
that boy cats inflict in testosterone-fueled rages when fighting over girl
cats--which is why almost all FIV are boys.) it's NOT air-borne,
water-borne, feces-borner. ie, it's not really a
that.

I'm a little less worried about FIV, despite what the vet said, b/c I knew this
about the bite wounds. And none of my cats fight like that- ever. Plus, by
the time I took in the wimpy, frail, undernourished (anorexic) guys, they are
so slow they don't even play fight. All were neutered at 2

Yes, FIV cats don't typically have too much of a shortened lifespan
I certainly agree with that. Fiv is easy - I have several FIV cats,
that never get sick. Well, I have 1 that's just turned diabetic, but
other than that, no problem. I mix them with my non-FIV cats, no
problem.
FIP, another question, like she said. They can test for FIV/FELV in-
Your description of the eyes sounds like uveitis, Junior had this after his
initial symptoms from the FELV onset. Junior had this after he was dx with
FELV. It is hard to treat and took a over a month to clear up. He was
already blind in one eye but left the good eye partially blind as well. You
Yes, one of my seized fosters had uveitis as well. It is very hard to
treat. I don't think it has a connection with FIP though, and cats can do
very well partially blind or even completely blind in one eye.

I know he wanted to run a full blood panel so maybe that is why? He wants to
look at the thyroid- altho he said he doubted it was that; liver, wbc, rbc,
platelets, etc., you name it. Like I said, it was my first time seeing this
vet and so we working on building rapport, at the same time
you have a fluid bump little man...and it's leaking! We're not running
around the house leaking fluid!
humans are NO fun at all, at all.

Dixie eats chopped high vitamin C veggies but the tech of a holistic vet I know
uses the Wal-Mart brand of tablets and cuts them into 1/4 and grinds them.
Start slowly and work up with the vitamin C and with the Brewer's Yeast. If
you don't you may get unpleasant side effects.
Laurie be careful with the Brewers yeast.
One of my Scotties developed itchy, bright red ears, as a result of an
allergic
reaction to it. The minute my vet saw her she asked if I had been using
Brewer's yeast.
Cats may react differently, but 'heads up'.
