Hi all...I found my cat as a stray and the sucker I am took her in and fell in love with her. I found out later she has feline leuk. I am in need to a rommate, however she has two cats. Does anyone know of an effective vaccine that would allow her cats to live safely with mine...??? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

From what I've learned, you must keep the cats completely separate or the one with feline leukemia will infect the others. That's what I'm faced with now:

I took Oreo, a rescue cat, into my home. She tested positive for feline leukemia The vet said we could have her retested in a month and she might have fought it off. The problem is that I have a cat who is healthy and so I cannot keep Oreo. She needs to go into a home with no cats or cats who also tested positive. She is not contagious to people or any other animals, only cats. She's very sweet, though somewhat shy. She has never been in a house before. My husband and his friends at work had been feeding her and taking care of her. She's very friendly and affectionate. We want very much to find her a good home. My home email is [moderator note: e-mail address has been removed].
