Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) - What You Should Know | Margaret Tompkins | OCC 2023

Twenty years ago we were killing FeLV+ cats just because they had a virus. Ten years ago, we were looking for sanctuaries to send them to. Today, we’re actively adopting FeLV+ cats into loving homes. What we’ve learned about FeLV in the last couple of years is nothing short of revolutionary! We will dispel the old myths with the results of science. FeLV is a virus to be respected but not feared. Comprehensive handouts will be provided.
