Most important thing I wish I had known was NOT to panic. My Tucson was 5

Sorry your kitty has tested positive. Since you are considering vaccinating
Bea, are you assuming she is still/originally negative?Perhaps, it was
Bea who infected Sylvia, you should test Bea ASAP.
Since I started to take in FeLV cats, I have had two young adults and one

If you have access to a holistic vet, check in with her/him. Mine,

housecats could infect them.

Alice I am so happy for you and your two little ones. They are looking
better both clinically and with respect to the lab values. That's fantastic
