The worst news I have ever gotten?

My cat was diagnosed with Feline Leukemia yesterday.I am so shocked to have found this out.He is my favorite cat, and I love him soo much. Hes my baby, and I dont want to loose him yet. And that disease it not treatable.I could loose him any day. Im trying to spend as much time with him as possible.
Answers:
I'm so sorry your kitty has this disease! I know this must be hard on you and your cat, but hang in there and give him as much love and comfort as you can.

Just a warning, but if your cat has been around any other cats, you should have them tested, or tell their owners. Feline Leukemia is a contagious disease that is contracted by direct contact, like with water/food bowls, bedding, etc. In the future, you can have your cat tested and vaccinated against this disease. I'm not trying to sound harsh or mean, I'm just trying to make you aware of this.

I hope you cat has a good life in his last few days and good luck to you in coping with this problem!
I am sorry. That is the worst news a kitty parent can ever get. I remember when my kitten got sick, thank god she made it through, (she ate lilies) but we are inseparable now. love him up good. give him an extra hug for me. My thoughts are with you
this is a question?
I'm so sorry.(((hugs)))
Aww I am so sorry! I love my cat also, it's like my baby. Just give him all the love! And make life easy for him! And again I am so sorry!
Has he ever had a shot to prevent that disease?? I read before that if they get vaccinated for it the blood work will sometimes show like they have it..

Give him lots of love and extra TLC.

I was told in Dec. 05 that my kitty had cancer and did I want to put him down? I hadn't even a clue he was that sick. He only slowed on his eating and I was wondering about that. I took him home and he lived another 5 1/2 weeks and died peacefully.
So I know all too well what you are going through..

Spend extra time with him and tell him you love him . If you make sure you are able to give him your best in his last days you will be able to think back and have your wonderful memories of him and not have any regrets about doing all you can for him.
I'm very sorry to hear that - our first kitty had that and he was such a wonderful member of the family. He did live to be 10 yrs. old before he got chronically ill. I hope yours can make it a while longer! It's really hard to lose a part of the family.
I am so sorry to hear about your cat. Feline Leukemia is a horrible diagnosis. My family and I rescued a cat from a house that had caught fire years ago, and she had some respiratory problems, which we originally thought was caused during the fire; but she had F L as well. We made sure that we spent as much time as we could with her and let her have lots of her favorite treats and lots of naptime when she needed it. She was with us for about eight months after she was diagnosed, and she was completely spoiled and happy. You may want to have any other cats in your household checked as FL is quite contagious. Please give your kitty a cuddle from me and my family and our four cats and one dog. I am sure that he knows your heart and knows that he has been well-loved. God bless you both and enjoy every day together.
I've been through that before. Our cat (long time ago) was diagnosed with the same thing. Several weeks later, we went camping and when we came back, he barely had enough energy to meow for help. You just have to make him comfortable with a soft bed and give him treats (if you want) and pay attention to him when you can. Maybe even play with him.
Give him as much love as you can, but be careful, the FL is caused by a virus.
how sad for you take lots of photos of him before he goes
Oh, I'm so sad for you.. I know how hard it is to lose a loved pet. He knows you love him.
