Your new online friends know what you didIf writing that up does get them more donations, then I say go for it! I think I was taken aback for about 1/2 a second, and then said F it, whatever, just treat him

Only if they are very feral. It's a blood test that requires blood drawn from either the neck or the leg so most cats can be tested easily enough, but if the cat is too feral to hold still while you draw blood you would need to sedate him.Tracks/River has not yet been tested. When I asked after him this was the response I got this evening:
He's been resting comfortably here we have not tested him yet, we were waiting for him to put on some weight and get a little stronger before we had to knock him out
So cats have to be anesthetized to test for leukemia?

He is not handleable, which is why he would need to be knocked out. It would be nearly impossible to hold him down to draw blood or run any tests, unfortunately.
Yes, I believe if/when he is a bit healthier or stronger I could visit the rescue and see him. I am hoping his tests come back positive and that will be an option!
