One of my babies, Monty, was diagnosed at 9 months old. He was incredibly ill and the vet didn’t think he would make it and wanted me to put him to sleep as well. I wasn’t ready to give up, so I went to another vet. 3 years 3 months later, Monty is still with me and have never been sick since his initial diagnosis. He lives in the same house as his brother (Felv negative), his mother (negative), his grandmother (negative), 2 aunts (both negative), 2 uncles (both negative) and 4 other unrelated cats who are all negative. We did lose one of his aunts and his dad who were both positive. They all share the same space and have for over 4 years.

I just found out that Moses is + and he's quite sick. the doctor put him on prednesone and doxycline... He's not eating and he's quite thin. The dr wants to put him to sleep. Is this really my only option? Also - if i bring him home to be with his brothers... will he infect them? Should i have them tested? I'm so sad. Any help would be greatly appreciated...
