Hello eveyone. I realise that there are a lot of threads on feline leukemia out there but I couldn' t find one talking about a weak positive test results. Let me tell you about a wonderful young cat (3.5 years old, lets call him big head) that has come into my life. First I rescued a 7 month old and then followed up 3 weeks later with with Big Head. BH had tons of fleas, tape worms and a urinary tract infection when i got him. The woman who was able to trap him took him to a vet to have him checked out and at the time that is what they found out. I got him several days later and started caring for him and took him to a vet a month later for a follow up for all his ailments and to have him also get the rest of his shots. He has been, for the most part, been hiding in the diningroom built in hutch. The 2 cats have been for the most part in different parts of my apartment. I haven't really had them together because BH was so scared he just wanted to hide. The younger cat would hiss at the older cat so I was just waiting till BH came out of hiding. Even though they lived together before and the younger would follow BH around he now was not being nice to him therefore we have been calling him "The Brute". Well thats it for the general history lesson. A day later my vet calls me and lets me know that he tested a weak positive for feline leukemia and that we will test him in another 3 months.I have a friend that is a vet and he doesn't think it very likely that he will fight it off.
Is there anything I can do to help him fight this off? I' m going to give him bottle water and some vitamins a friend is sending over. Anything else to help him fight this off? Thank you for your help.
