Hello
I am new to this site and I have a question...
I rescued a kitten a week ago who was found in a parking lot. He is only 12 weeks old. He had diarrhea pretty bad so I took him to the vet today to have that checked out and also to have his shots and all. Turns out he has ear mites, whip worms (which is what was causing the diarrhea) but the scarest news came when the vet told me that he tested positive for feline lukemia
. He told me that it is not a death sentence that it just means that his mom or dad had it and that he will retest in 4 to 6 months to see if it is still positive. My question is what is going to happen if the second test says positive? Is my cat going to die? I asked the vet and he said we should wait for the next test and then discuss what will happen but I am so worried. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
