My vet has Dixie Louise on Interferon (1 cc every
other day) and I try to brush her teeth (or use tooth wipes)--notice the word
try. My holistic vet has Dixie on some drops that we hope will keep Dixie
healthy and happy. I don't know where you are located or if you have your
own holistic vet or not. If you want contact information for mine I will
send it. I don't know if she consults by phone or not. It never
hurts to ask.
If you have men who will exclude any of God's
creatures
from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise with their fellow
man.

My 1st FeLV+ cat, I have had him 3 years, is healthy and
active except that he has a chronic gum problem.. Antibiotics help some
but he hates them and hides from us when he thinks that is what he
is going to get... Would Immuno Regulin be good for this ?? Its
easier to take him to the vet than it is to get antibiotics in
him... Tad

Hey,
Again, I would try immunoregulin and a holistic vet. I
would also look for another vet who's more receptive to trying new
things. My vet actually did research and came up with things to try
for my positive when she was sick.
HI Carmen! little Ty has started with a respiratory problem
now, very stuffed up. I called the vet and they are going to set me
up with some antibiotics. What kind of treatments do you do for your
FeLV kitties? Any guidance would be great. My vet isn't
working with me as much as they first said they would, I'm now looking for
a different vet for him.
This little guy is a sweetie, it would be great if I could find
someone that would take on his challenge.
Hi
Roxanne, Keep working with him. I'd treat all the symptoms first and see
how he is after that. There is always a chance for finding a place
for him too. Give him a chance and see if all the health problems
don't work themselves out. If not, then you know you did everything
you possibly could for him. Carmen (C & W)
