If you follow my suggestion, Louis, and have the two young cats vaccinated against FeLV a few weeks before they come into contact with the FeLV+ cat they will be immune to the disease, so won't become infected. As I said it will be necessary for the young cats to have a second vaccination about 8 weeks after the first. Incidentally a lot of cats that become infected with this particular virus do overcome it, so this might happen in the case of this older cat. It is a common practice to retest a + cat 3 to 4 months later to ee if this has happened.Hi John,
Thank you very much for the detail. The older cat with FeLV isn’t sick yet.
My question is more about how to have the cats together without the virus passing to the two younger cats. With your suggestion, will it prevent the virus from passing from the older cat to the younger ones?
Thanks,
Louis
