Roxanne....
Perhaps I missed something along the way... another email perhaps??   
I'm not sure if I understand your question...  Why would you have 
concerns about letting people know you have FeLV cats....and moreover 
why would you feel somehow badly that you are NOT embarassed.....  I've 
never noted any discrimination on the part of other cat owners against 
people with FeLV cats....  The question took me so offguard that I feel 
I MUST have missed something along the way ( eg... you run a pet care 
business or something similiar       ??     Apart from anything like 
that I don't see the downside ( even potentially) of letting people know 
that you are kind enough to look after animals that have special 
needs...
