Re: [Felvtalk] Info on probiotics and CoQ10

[Natalie]

I get the GNC vegetarian brand Coenzyme Q10 because it comes in powder form
in capsules.  I get the 100 mg, half per cat per day in food.  Each cat ,
FIV/FeLV and heart patients, get 50mg daily.
I still haven't been able to find probiotics in powder form, and am still
opening up capsules every day.  I use any good ones available at either
Whole Foods or health food stores.

What form is the CoQ10 in?  I take 100 mg daily; you said 30 mg for the cat.

My cat, Lucky, has an enlarged heart and is constantly congested/sneezing. 
Antibiotics don't seem to help.  Also, what pro-biotic do you give?
I'm curious how you give it to the cat...mix in food?   Lucky has spit up 
the Lysine when I mixed it in his food before.
Thanks for your help!

Re: [Felvtalk] Is ther anything that can reverse the anemia?

[Heather]

I guess you are presuming this is non-regenerative, correct?

[Felvtalk] FeLV+ 7 mo Kitten--Test Protocols & Nutritional Support, Meds, to boost Immunity?

[M C]

Dear Kitty Lovers,

One of my rescued kittens rested positive for leukemia. She was tested at 4 
mos, 
5 mos, then 7 mos-- all positive on the ELISA. My vet says if she retests 
positive on the ELISA in 2 mos, she's definitely positive. Others say we need 
to 
do the IFA to get the more accurate results. She looks healthy, but still small 
for her age, she recently had a mild cold which went away w/Amoxi dosge.

At this point, the chances of her fighting off a FeLV infection are not great, 
right? With that said, if anyone has nutritional supplements, food 
recommendations, and other ideas on how to provide her with the best immunity 
support/boosts, please let us know!

I keep hearing about Interferon, but I don't know anyone else w/a felv kitten 
or 
cat, so any advice would be appreciated! My vet is relatively new to this 
disease, he only sees the kitties w/feLV when its really gotten bad...

Thanks,

Sara
