📚 Our BACK TO BASICS SERIES: FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus)

FeLV is a common infectious disease, specific to cats, that impairs a cat's immune system. It can cause cancer and leaves the cat susceptible to illness. There is no cure.

**LINKS TO MORE INFORMATION ABOUT FeLV CAN BE FOUND IN THE COMMENTS BELOW THIS POST.**

🔶Quick facts:
➡FeLV is transmitted through the saliva, nasal secretions, urine, f***s, and milk of infected cats.
➡Direct contact with these bodily fluids, mutual grooming, shared litter boxes and food dishes, and bite wounds all expose uninfected cats to the virus.
➡A vaccine is available but not 100% effective.
➡An infected cat can be asymptomatic and live a NORMAL LIFE for a prolonged period of time!
➡FeLV is quickly diagnosed through a blood test.
➡FeLV is NOT transmissible to humans or other animals.
➡If you have an indoor/outdoor cat, you risk its FeLV status every time it goes outdoors.
➡In the U.S., approximately 4% percent of cats are infected with FeLV.

📢 EDUCATION IS KEY!!!!!
➡FeLV+ cats are EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to adopt out because many people are uneducated about FeLV.
➡FeLV+ cats are often immediately euthanized, even though they show NO SIGNS of illness. 💔 Stop unnecessary euthanization through education!
📢 FeLV+ cats should NOT be EUTHANIZED unless they are ill or suffering beyond what can be treated.
📢 If you're in rescue or doing TNR, please note:
➡Before you place a cat for adoption (or in a foster home with other cats), it should be tested for FeLV.
➡Adopt that cat out with full disclosure about its FeLV+ status. The adopter must be aware that the cat MAY require more veterinary care than the average house cat.
➡Beware of false positives in FeLV tests for cats of all ages.
➡To limit the spread of the disease, FeLV+ cats should be placed in homes with other FeLV+ cats or homes without cats. Or, FeLV- cats already in household could be vaccinated against the disease. Consult a vet.
➡We don't FeLV test the cats we TNR. Alley Cat Allies also holds this position.
➡ADVOCATE for FeLV+ cats! 💪

such good info when someone is allergic to their cat, instead of giving them up to try: (taken from a comment on FB)

So, I work in cat rescue and my spouse is also extremely allergic. However we were able to find a solution. We purchased a good air purifier system. Then we found out what people are actual allergic to is a protein cats have called Fel d1. Purina makes a food called live clear that reduces that protein in a few months of being on it. Another thing we implemented was constantly using the waterless bath wipes to help with the dandruff. We did not let them in bedroom either. He also used to have to do to doctor for allergy shots but after exposure and all the adjustments he has been fine and only sometimes has to take over counter allergy meds. Have they tried any of this to help?

Yes 👍

More containers going for our feral colonies. We will fill with straw first !

The last ones were removed in this cold weather by mean people.

We have to replace them as most of our cats are under 1 years old .

If you have totes or foam or money ! We can use it. Our goal is to blanket catawba County with feral houses.

Ask your friends if they have any old totes or foam containers ....

Good to know

We are now offering a low-cost Annual Visits for dogs and cats, through our curbside clinic. Your pet will be brought back for a complete physical exam with an HSCC veterinarian. During this examination, the veterinarian will listen to your pet’s heart and lungs, check their skin, eyes, ears, teeth and gums. In addition during this time, any vaccinations or testing for your pet can be performed.

In order to purchase heartworm and flea/tick prevention from HSCC your pet must have an Annual Visit with our veterinarian. Cost for an Annual Visit will be $35. Additional services, vaccines, and tests will be an additional cost.

To schedule your appointment visit www.catawbahumane.org.
