Q: I’m considering adopting Hope, a 1-year-old cat who tested positive for the feline leukemia virus. She’s healthy now, but I know from your column that she may get sick in the future.

If I could buy pet health insurance for her, I would be more likely to seek out the best treatment if her health worsens. However, I’ve been unable to find insurance that covers preexisting conditions.
