My cat is sneezing, losing weight. Is it feline AIDS or leukemia?

Question

Is there anything that can be done for feline aids or feline lukymia? I'm not sure if that's what my cat has. I have 3 and when we got the youngest he was very ill and got the other 2 sick. The older two are better now but have occasional congestion and sneeze alot. Now the youngest is acting weird and lost a good bit of weight.

Many cats with either of these diseases can live long lives, as long as special care is taken to limit the chance of infections, which are difficult for them to fight. Keeping cats indoors is probably the #1 thing you can do to not only prevent these diseases but also keep your cats in the best health possible. You should know that there is a simple and inexpensive test that checks for both of these diseases, and it might ease your mind greatly to know whether or not your cats actually have one of them.
