Amber,
Thank you for your kind words. I totally understand about the "what if". My
husband and I are always saying, what if we would have tested him when he was a
kitten and got to this sooner. The Vet did not think we needed to test the
kittens because their Mom tested negative.
I am so sorry you lost Parker! I know I will be experiencing that in the near
future and it frightens me so! I have taken a lot of pictures of Gray Kitty.
I keep them in a photo album on my myspace page. I am writing a blog on there
about him as well. I know the pain of losing Parker is deep. He knows he was
very loved and taken care of! :o)> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To:

LTCI on our little Gray Kitty. However, since his diagnosis on September 6 of
this year, the disease has progressed to his bone marrow. At this point we are
not sure if anything will help him. We have not run into another situation such
as ours. We took in a stray pregnant female in 2007, which tested negative for
the FelV. She had 3 male kittens, which we all kept. Our Gray Kitty is the only
one that has been diagnosed with the FelV. The other two test negative. Also
Gray Kitty is the only one with the B type blood. We are so puzzled, shocked,
and very saddened that he has come down with this disease. We know our time
with him is so very precious. Amber,> > > >
