Hi Pat - I've had an FELV/FIV pos kitty - Mr. Black Kitty, a real beloved cat. He came into my life skinny and sick, but feisty. Found him in 2001, he died in 2002, a year later. I've also asked about mixing FELV and FIV - and I don't think there's any definitive answer, except that both

Thanks Gloria -- I too thought it was more of a problem for the FIV+ kitties. She seems to think that it would be a problem for the FeLV+ s but I guess it's all a matter of how you look at it. Mixing another virus into the equation is always risky. Thanks for the info. PAT[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

hi, pat! welcome to this wonderful group of folks. (as i keep saying, we have to stop meeting this way, guys.) i totally agree--i'd put an FIV+ with a FeLV+ with no hesitation i've known FIVs who have been vaccinated against FeLV to remain FeLV-, too, but there's lots of questions about

The general consensus,I believe is that it is OK to put a FIV+/FELV+ cat in with FELV+ cats, and the FELV+ cats should not catch the FIV from him. The reverse is not true, you do NOT want to put a FELV+ cat in with FIV+/FELV- cats, because the FIV+ cats ARE likely to catch the FELV from him.

It's so sad that we are seeing so many cats test positive for both Felv and FIV. In fact, we originally had 2 FIV areas and 2 Felv areas, but we had so many cats turn up positive for both, we have a Felv+/FIV+ area also. (And why is it always some of the sweetest cats) Patti
