Thanks Sandra for sharing the stories about your fur friends and the
encouraging words for me and Star. I'm already feeling a bit better
about the whole thing. Star is not felv pos, he's FIV, you know "the
cat HIV". You sound like our kind of people. It's always nice to meet
others that share the love, concern and the necessary patience to
befriend the forgotten angels in the world.
Blessings and prayers for you and for Tabbs good health,
Nina

My feline family sadly has been reduced from 6 to 4, due too OUR RED
BOY rocky developing FELV back in the summer. He was our first stray
to turn up on our door step, AND WAS WITH US FOR 4 YEARS, Chang was
the last to be welcomed to our Villa, where upon he was only with us
for 18 months, which was very sad, as he was so pleased to have found
a home, and we where very upset to have him put to sleep due to kidney
failure, and cat aids. on top of having taken 6 months to win him
round to believing that we where his friends, it was very hard to not
be in a position to treat him due to the fact that one trick of
catching him with a visit to the vets and I would never get near him
again for a month of Sundays. We had him neuter, and he would not let
me get near him for over 4 months , Even though I did win him round
again in the end. Now I also have our tabbs who tested FELV , he was
someone's pet at some time and is having all the help that I can give
him, even though I wonder if my Spanish vet is as on the ball as he
would have be believe,But his heart is in the right place and I think
he is very good,
I could cry for you with regard to your stray boy, it is so sad than
now he knows love that he wants you all the time, my Chang was like
that, I wish you all the luck in the world in finding him a good home
, or where you can find a way round keeping him happy with the time
that you can give him,
I do know that people have cats that are felv positive, and keep them
in a separate cat house out side away from there house cats, but you
are always unhappy that they can not be with you,
unless you could get him a friend who felv as well ,that he may get on
with once he is neutered.
good luck
take care Sandra
