I do cat rescue in Rochester, NY and we are a no-kill rescue so when we get in leuk pos kitties, we do our best to find places for them to go. We don't euthanize like so many of the groups do. I have positives of my own but I am at capacity in my home. We can keep the FIV positives at our building but not the leuk positives because we are cage free and all of our rooms are full with non-contagious cats. We don't get them in often but am I able to contact you to see if you are able to help if we do get a leuk pos? We always hold them at least 30 days to restest and often 60 or 90 days and we run both tests, the ELISA and the IFA to make sure they aren't going to fight it off first. So far, most of the ones we have taken in have converted after some time. We are always looking for more options on the rare occasion we do get one in that remains positive and tests positive on both the ELISA and IFA. Thanks for helping these kitties!!!!<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790420"><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790420"><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'>Let me know!<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790420"><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'>Thanks Amy<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790418"><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790455"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790454"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790453"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790452"><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black'><hr size=1 width="100%" align=center></span></div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black'> Lorrie <<a href="mailto:felinerescue@frontier.com">felinerescue@frontier.com</a>><br><b>To:</b> <a href="mailto:felvtalk@felineleukemia.org">felvtalk@felineleukemia.org</a> <br><b>Sent:</b> Sunday, May 15, 2016 6:56 PM<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Felvtalk] Cat Sanctuary</span><span style='font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1463053271867_790615"><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;background:white'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black'><br>> <br>> Lorrie,<br>> <br>> Do you have pictures?

I don't think they let us send photos to the group,<br>but if you want to see it I can send it to you. However, outside you<br>just see a two story brick building not the inside.<br>-<br><br>It's really difficult to take photos of the inside because I can't<br>get back far enough in each room to really show what I've done.<br>-<br><br>My cat sanctuary is two stories and a basement. Downstairs are 5<br>rooms, including two rooms with wire doors for introduction or<br>isolation. My live-in caretaker has her own bedroom, a large kitchen,<br>full bathroom and a half bath. The cats have access to every room<br>and my caretaker lets them sleep with her. She spoils them rotten.<br>They (cats & caretaker) all have a couch, chairs, and kitty kondos.<br>There is a glass front door and window perches so they can look<br>outside.<br><br><br>The cats are NOT in cages, they have the run of the downstairs and<br>upstairs rooms. The older cats are downstairs, and adoptable young<br>cats and kittens are upstairs which is also designed just for them.<br>Upstairs are 4 large kitty kondos, 2 people chairs, many cozy cat<br>beds, and a wall-walk with two tunnels that goes all around the<br>walls. There are 4 rooms upstairs, and a laundry room. <br><br><br>Lorrie<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Felvtalk mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org">Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org</a><br><a href="http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org" target="_blank">http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org</a><br><br><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
