What are the symptoms of feline leukemia?

I’m going to re-phrase my question: Are constipation, foul-smelling oral discharge, weight loss, and lack of appetite symptoms of feline leukemia?
FYI – My cat is at the vet as we speak. They’re concerned that one of the causes of her symptoms could be feline leukemia….but while I wait, I’m just doing a little research of my own.

That is a question you should ask your vet. I know I would certainly be calling mine if my cat was experiencing ANY of the above.
Yes. My kitten has feline leukemia. They are susceptible to infections. I think it’s more common to have diarrhea than constipation, though. Loss of appetite and weight loss are definitely signs. If it’s caught early enough, it’s manageable (notice things earlier, proper treatment and diagnosis, etc.). I really hope your cat gets better.
