Sending my positive energy for Bramble and you
Michelle L, hopefully he will pull through it!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm so sorry to hear of those of you who have lost you beloved furkids. It
is so painful and I still miss my dear girl now even though it is 2 months since
her death. I think I ended up coping by writing her a poem and drawing her
aswell as being around other animals and taking my 3 new cats. Bramble is not a
well cat I'm afraid and we are getting him on Feline Omega Interferon tomorrow -
certainly think it's calcivirus. And although Bramble is FIV+ he could also have
FeLV as he lives with an FeLV+ cat - I'm not testing him though as he is
reaching close to the end with the FIV I think. He will be tested for
Calicivirus too tomorrow. My FeLV+ cat is just so mischievous and looks so
healthy although she too will be taking a trip to the vet as she has a little
bit of a runny nose but is coping well - she keeps jumping on and off the
wardrobe and diving in and out of her playing tunnel chasing her buddy - Bramble
just lets them get on with it. I think it was all triggered by the stress of
them changing homes when they came out of the animal sanctuary 3 weeks ago into
their new home.
I will try what I can for Bramble but if he has no improvement I think it
will be kinder for him to be sent up to play with my Tidge at rainbow bridge
until I get there.
I also hadn't realized that the FeLV+ cat life span was commonly so short
so thanks for discussing that as it will be useful to me cope with that when
that time arrives - so difficult when they have to pass over but helping them
and knowing they are well loved is well worth the heartache.
