BB Sausage was taken out of the pound for rehoming. She is a round little girl with a nonsense right-angled tail. She has a round head about the size of a tennis ball and beautiful white lined eyes. According to her blood test, she has FELV which stands for feline leukemia. Given her young age, she probably got it from her mother. She is asymptomatic, has a very healthy appetite and energy level and is one of the most affectionate kittens i’ve ever met. She spends time running up to me to curl up on me and fall asleep or ask for pets when I’m watching tv. She’s even friendly to complete strangers and goes to sit beside them.
FELV is a silly virus and the best source of information is here – https://www.msdvetmanual.com/generalized-conditions/feline-leukemia-virus/feline-leukemia-virus-disease. In short there are three possible ways this can go
- BB Sausage fights the virus and gets it out of her system (abortive)
- BB Sausage fights the virus and it goes dormant in her system (regressive)
- BB Sausage is not able to fight the virus and it kicks into gear (progressive)
Since BB Sausage is about 3 months old only, and super active and no issues on inappetance, I think she’s fighting it and I believe it’ll be slayed / go dormant. Many cats who test positive are successful in fighting the virus and there are a number of supplements and immune boosters now easily available to help them fight the virus.
The following guidelines must be strictly followed:
1. The kittens must be kept strictly indoors, meaning all your windows and gate must be secured with mesh.
2. Primary adopter should be financially stable, and every member of the household should be agreeable to the adoption.
3. The kittens must be provided good quality food and regular vet care.
4. Sterilisation when the kittens are 6 months old is mandatory.
5. Adoption house visit, fees and contract apply. If you are interested, please fill in the adoption questionnaire and send it to over to 91070185 by whatsapp only. https://www.catwelfare.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Sample-Adoption_Questionaire.doc
