-->Hello again, Here are the results of my cousin Tom’s cat Baby’s traditional (non-viral-load) bloodwork. Her anemia is gone!  This is VERY good new!  And all the rest of her bloodwork is entirely normal. By all measures, it is better than February’s was, done soon after she was bitten. I noticed when she arrived here on 4/5 that she was FAR more active than in February, so I think she’s feeling much better. But she tested positive via IDEXX’s RealPCR “fever of unknown origin” for one subtype of mycoplasma – they are ubiquitous (soil, etc) and some subtypes can cause anemia. Unfortunately that IDEXX test can find the mycoplasma DNA/RNA, but can’t tell if she’s just getting it, or did have it and is recovering.  The options were to treat her, else repeat bloodwork in 1 month to see if it’s gone. But because her FeLV status can make her more vulnerable to not being able to fight off infections, it seemed sensible to go ahead and treat her. So she’s getting doxycycline for 28 days.Baby is back home now and loving life. (-:  Best regards, - Lorraine
