Maggie, I was in a similar situation with 2 kittens and one testing positive. My positive got very sick with a URI, herpes, etc but did get well from that and went on to live to around 6 or 7 years old. I did NOT keep her on antibiotics after she got well. She was on antibiotics, interfe

Hi Maggie,
I think you made the right decision in keeping Izzie
and Lucy together. A stress-free environment is one

Thank you, I am taking Smokey to the vet Saturday to

Hey Cindy,
I just wanted to tell you how thrilled I am that Smokey is doing so

Hi, I took in a stray that was hanging around our
house. His name is Smokey. He was probably around 7
or 8 months when he tested positive. This after he
tested negative the first time. He kept on running
high fevers. The vet would put him on antibiotics and
the fever would go down only to retu
Hi,
I adopted sisters, Lucy and Izzie, from a shelter at 4 months old. Without going into too much detail, they are now 7 months old and I have just learned that Lucy is positive. She is symptomatic, she had a high fever and URI in the beginning of May, went on antibiotics, but within a few days o
