Hi Steven,
Sorry to hear about Samauri, sending lots of positive, healing energy.
My Bailey was 5 months old and positive when I found him, he lived
together with his 8 vaccinated house mates for almost 11 years before I
lost him to undiagnosed pancreatic cancer (none of the tests we did
Steven, I understand your confusion. So little is understood about FeLV. My
experience has been with 6 kittens born with FeLV that I rescued from a
dumpster colony. They did not 'throw off' the virus but I have only lost one.
They remaining 5 are doing fine and have been mixed with my negat
Steven,
It is a difficult diagnosis to hear, so first, I am sorry.
Second, Felv+ is not an immediate death sentence for all felines in a
household. I agree with what has already been said, in that separating him may
only cause stress, and this is a huge factor for felv+ cats. It can push th

Hi S
who owns who , that is the question. i believe that it is our cats who own us.

only route as radiation would do far more harm than good. co
Plus, the stress of suddenly being seperated from one another could trigger

Hi Steven,
Sorry to hear one of your babies is FeLV and has a lymphoma. Lymphoma is
one of the things that can be caused by FeLV. I can't personally comment on
the treatment for lymphoma, but I have a friend who had an FeLV kitty that
had it and chemo was successful in that case.
As someone els
Steven, I'm not sure why your vet would assume that the others will test
positive. It's certainly possible, but I wouldn't be quite so quick to assume.
There seems to be a lot of debate about just how communicable the FeLV is;
however it's seems widely held that it doesn't really become terri
Steven, how long has Sammy lived with all the others?

Steven,
Why your vet would assume the others will be positive is distressing. You can
have one positive and never have any other occurrences, ever, ever, amen. As
for separating, if the cats have all been living together up till now, then you
might as well let them continue to co-mingle. Separa
