A couple of months later, she got a big knot under her chin. The vet checked her for feline leukemia and it came back positive. Not long after I had to have her put to sleep. Did the vet say anything about the possibility of her having feline Leukemia?

Hi Marv,
That thought also crossed our minds because her behavior mimicked a cat I had growing up in the early 80’s that contracted the disease. This was at a time that FLV was new to us and its highly contagious rate on other cats in the home. I have never forgotten what “Killer” went through. My dad brought him home one day as a tiny feral little kitten after catching this little guy at a job sight. The dad was a local bobcat and mum a feral siamese.
Onyx’s blood panel returned mostly normal and she was current with all of her shots and always was indoors since a heavy snow storm in 2009.
Thanks again,
