Jen,

I'd like to help you with your search for information.  I'm a
librarian and I have an FIV+ cat.  Hopefully you can benefit from my
experiences.

Hercules is an eight year-old male I adopted from a local shelter a few
years ago.  He's a wonderful cat with an outgoing personality, and I
was stunned when he was diagnosed with FIV.

My vet said the only hope for my beloved Hercules was a regimen of
Interferon and AZT.  He assured me there wouldn't be side effects,
but he was wrong. Hercules reacted to both medications, and his
condition rapidly deteriorated.

My local vet was completely stumped, so I contacted a large veterinary
school. The doctors there said they've seen many cats who couldn't
tolerate Interferon or AZT, and both drugs can cause side effects in
some animals.

Since medical options weren't panning out, I decided to research
natural treatments for Feline AIDS.  I quickly learned there are an
abundance of supplemental and dietary strategies for combating this
disease.  Hercules has responded well to these modalities of treatment,
and I expect to have him with me for the foreseeable future.

If you're still interested in finding books about Feline AIDS,
there's only one that I know of, and it's already been mentioned in
this thread. "Feline AIDS: A Pet Owner's Guide" was released by a
company called Kitter-House press earlier this year, and it's the
only title available on this topic. I've used this book while caring
for Hercules, and I've found it extremely helpful.

Feline AIDS is a serious disease, but cats receiving natural treatments
and qualified medical care can often recover.  Don't give up on
Betsy, and I hope you find the answers you're searching for.
