I think she means colloidal silver. I heard about it when I was on an
IBD list. I even purchased some, but chickened out when it came to
trying it. I have read of anequdotal reports of it benefiting immune
related diseases. Here's an excerpt from a website about it:
http://nccam.nih.gov/health/alerts/silver/index.htm
Colloidal silver products are often marketed with various unproven
health-related claims. Examples include that they benefit the immune
system; kill disease-causing agents such as bacteria, viruses, and
fungi; are an alternative to prescription antibiotics; or treat diseases
such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, syphilis, scarlet fever,
shingles, herpes, pneumonia, and prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate).

I've never heard of silver collagen, but the other treatments sound
logical and appropriate. Good for your vet for treating appropriately,
and not writing your cat off! can you let us know his name and
location, we keep a record of all FELV friendly vets so others can
find them.
