[Felvtalk] Plan for Coco

[Kelley S]

Hi all,

Coco is FELV+ kitty #2.  My plan for her so she doesn't feel so alone until
I can bring myself to mix (all other kitties have tested negative, some
multiple times) is to buy a large cat condo and put her in it at least a
couple hours a day out here.  Now, what I want to ask yall about is
spaying.  She is unsprayed.  There is NO chance of her getting out (she'd
have to get out of the FELV room, then out of the basement, then upstairs
then out an exterior door upstairs, which is not going to happen, plus when
we leave we go out the garage door to go out so if anyone WERE to follow us
they'd still just be in the garage).  As long as I've had her she has never
seemed to go into heat.  If she did it was a silent heat.  Is it more
stressful to spay her or more stressful to not spay her?

She is a beautiful medium hair orange girl.

I am going to ask the doctor about Winstrol for her.  I am debating taking
her to the holistic vet but she is so expensive here ($400 for an initial
visit).  I have her on Standard Process Feline Immune System support 1
tablet 2x day.  I am putting a Seresto collar on her if I can keep it on
her  We have a bad flea problem here and nothing I am doing is helping.  I
have lived all over the south and this is the worst flea problem I've ever
seen.  We have tried  diatomaceous earth.  Advantage doesn't do much at
all.  Revolution works for a little while.  I have some Advantage spray
which kills adults, larva and eggs to spray on carpeted furniture  I am
taking the blankies out of that room and wash them in hot water and dry on
high heat to kill eggs    Even our vet does not know what to do.  I am
declaring WAR on these flea.
