Some cats are able to mount an effective immune response, eliminate the virus from the bloodstream, and halt progression to the secondary stage.<br/><br/><p>Please read more about FeLV here: http://www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/brochures/felv.html<br/><br/><p>We hope that someone will give this beautiful guy a chance at life.
