You have my prayers and support. I've lost 3 labs, and it IS like losing family.

Feline Leukemia Virus

If Harley has FLV, odds are the momma cat does, too. If she hasn't been tested, she should be ASAP. If she's negative, go ahead and get her vaccinated. If she's positive, there is no cure and she'll infect other cats she comes in contact with.
Been there, done that and it was no fun. I lost 13 of 15 cats to the disease.

FLV can't be transmitted to humans or to other animals. Neither can Feline AIDS. There is a canine version of that, and an equine version though.
