If there were no documented cases of a vaccinated felv- contracting it from a positive, then wouldn't the vaccine be marketed as 100% effective, instead of 85% or so? I agree that many of the apparent vaccine failures could be due to "false negative" tests, but IMHO, until the testing gets more

as far as i know, there are no documented cases of VACCINATED negative cats contracting FeLV from living closely with positives--so if you have a positive kitty that you want to mingle, you have to weigh the pros and cons of vaccinating your other cats.

Kerry, my vet talked to a GI specialist and told me that for IBD she uses a
smaller dose of metronidazole, long-term. The dose is 5 mg/pound of body
weight. Since Lucy is 8 pounds, it is 40 mg twice a day. This is too small
and odd an amount to be able to break off the pills, so we got it
If you are not going to do chemo, then please please get the vet to give
him dexamethasone injections, or, even better, a combined shot of 1/2 ml dex and
1/2 ml depomedrol. These are very strong steroids that shrink lymphoma and make
them feel a whole lot better. They can help cats with lym

I started my own rescue so I can make my own rules. We are NOT going to euthanize FELV+ cats and we are also not going to spay cats that are almost at term. I'm not sure why it is seen as better to operate on the mom, take the kittens out and euthanize them than it is to just euthanize them after
