Theo thanks you for all the love! FeLV is complicated and not completely understood. Some can get rid of the virus, others can have it dormant in their system and live to their teens, others get sick and pass away sooner. Having a good vet is important for those with FeLV kitties. catfriendly.com...

When I look at my cat, I don't get existential crisis vibes. The only doubt is cast by me, two legs who can both reach and open the kibble stash, when and as needed. Other than that it's all zen.
