> Thank you very much for your detailed response Amani.  You obviously have a lot of experience treating both FeLV+ cats and kittens.  He (Kitty) will be 12 years old this coming Spring or Summer.  Thank you also Kat.  I remember taking him (Kitty) in from outside when he was one year old.  I am positive the Vet. did a FeLV test on him then and it was negative at one year old.  It surprised me him (Kitty) being diagnosed this old with FeLV.

I am not sure how these 2 older cats of mine contracted these diseases and how Mork died from it late in life.  Does an older cat's immune system get much weaker as they age?
