I've been feeding Bacardi Evolve . It's all natural and our practice
promotes it all the time. I also started Pet Tinic as soon as the snap test
started coming up positive. We've already gone through URI and
conjuctivitis. As for tazzy, the first grew so rapidly that by the time we
biopsied it it couldnt have been amputated. The day a had the surgery set
for we found a spot on his lung and in his abdomen on an x-ray. Out Felu
vaccines go as low as we can get them in the left leg, but Tazzy already had
a vaccine when they got him from a pet store when i was 8 years old. I
jusst hope everything turns out ok. Bacardi seems happy and loves to come to
work with me in morning. He hops in my purse all the time.... at least i
dont have to fight with him to go to the vet. i'm actually looking for a
new vet other than the one i work at, since they seem not to care as much as
they should with one of their employee's pets. Everything i know about this
is my own research. than-you so much for your time.

First off, feed the very best food you can afford, diet is the main factor
you can control in FELV. I prefer Innova or California natural, myself, but
other premiums food are just as good, look in our archives for suggestions
on diet and supplementation. Next keep him a stress free as you can, stress
triggers the symptomatic form of the virus, they can go a long time with no
symptoms if kept stress free and healthy. Here is the treatment page:

I'm concerned that your cat died of VAS, as you being a vet tech should
have caught it early enough for full amputation of the rear limb to remove
the cancer. Please reassure me that your cats are NOT getting vaccinated in
the neck scruff or between the shoulders. Vaccines should always be given
as low as possible on the legs, in case a sarcoma results, the limb can be
removed. If your vet is vaccinating incorrectly, I'd suggest finding a
different vet, one that is up to date on the current vaccine protocol
standards.
