FIV in Cats
/My 'humans' here at the Blue Cross Veterinary Centre are industry leaders. They have secured funding to investigate the prevalence of FIV in our area. FIV is a disease which attacks the immune system, much like HIV in humans. They are screening 'healthy' adult cats that haven't been vaccinated for FIV before (it is not one of the usual vaccinations). They will find out if FIV is something we should be more vigilant about in our area and whether we should routinely vaccinate against it. It can be a nasty disease and can kill us, but careful management can help extend our life. As soon as my people here have done all the hard work and collated all the data I will be sure to get back to you with their findings....watch my space......
