Did you know
that one of the ways to provide treatment for an FeLV positive Korat or other
FeLV positive cat is to make changes to his daily diet. FeLV stands for the
Feline Leukemia Virus and it can develop anemia, lymphoma or other cancers, and
even put your cat at risk for contracting other illnesses due to its
suppression of the immune system. The best thing you can do for your FeLV cat
is to protect him from secondary illnesses that can arise because of the
weakened immune system. For instance, keep your cat away from other cats since
they could be carrying other illnesses. Make sure your cat is on a healthy diet
free of raw meat, eggs and unpasteurized dairy products. These products may
harbor bacteria or parasites that could harm your cat since he is already ill.
In addition, take your cat in for routine checkups with your Wake Forest,
NC veterinary clinic team.
