hemobart isn't only common in positives--it seems that there's parts of the country where it's showing up all the time, because i'm in one of them..... one of the vets here mentioned two years ago that almost every cat she'd been sending bloodwork out on was coming back positive--so is it more common? are they testing more regularly for it? are the tests better? whatever, everyone around this part of the world knows now to ask that it be tested for....

   Please put him on Doxy (doxocycline), it is for hemobartonella which
cause anemia, if he doesn't have it the doxy won't hurt him, if he does
have it it might save his life, he's pretty anemic and should probably
have a transfusion to give the doxy time to work if he is hemo
positive.  Positives get hemo pretty regularly and it is extremly hard
to test for, false negatives are the norm when testing for it.  Prayers
for him to be OK.
