He had a temp of 107+ (that's as high as the thermometer went) and a WBC count of 2.8. He had had bloodwork done recently when he blocked, and the Vet had the go back and test fro FeLV/FIV. I'm pretty sure it was the stress of the blockage and treatment that brooght him to active FeLV status. He had tested negative at intake and again three months later, about a year before.<br><br>He went on a bed of ice, and pretty much stayed on cooling measures for a week, before his temp was reliably normal. He also was on Zenequin, DMG and oral B-Complex, and started on Interferon within the week (as soon as it could be delivered). He was syringe-fed with Hill's a/d and Iams Max Calorie (my first choice). Ever cat is different, and may need a few tricks to get them eating again. You can get real help from the people on the Feline Assisted Feeding group;<br><br> https://beta.groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Feline-Assisted-Feeding/info<br><br>He turned around after about a week, and did well for a while. I took him in to the Vet for a check-up. He is one of those odd cats who LOVES the Vet. He's more like a dog than a cat, what I call a PuppyCat. But love it or not, it stressed him. And he crashed. Did the same things again, and he rallied once more. Since then, he has stayed home, and done very well (knock madly on wood). He remains on interferon and a very low carb diet, but that's it. He was diagnosed on March 2, 2013.<br><br>I hope Kokonut will respond as well :)<br><br>All the best to you both,<br><br>Margo<br><br><blockquote style="padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 0px; border-left: #0000ff 2px solid; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif; color: black;">-----Original Message-----
