I will look into the rescue angle. I already asked the advice of a man who
traps ferals and does the spay/neuter release program. He told me to
contact the SPCA. I am outside the area they serve and they did not call
back. He gets help from several cat groups. I will look into it.
Money is another problem. My Friend is disabled and get a small disability
check from social security. It doesn't not even cover his living expenses.
My income is low as well because I work at a retail nursery. This is what I
went to school for 6 years and cannot make a decent wage. I do love the
job, but it is hard to make a living. I probably will fall between the
cracks for financial help, but I still need to look into that. Getting
through the initial crisis is my first priority. I still need to vaccinate
the 7 negative cats. If I can catch them all it will be done next Friday.
I feel time is of the essence but nothing is happening quick enough.
Thanks
Sally

hope you find a new vet soon. wish i knew someone down there. perhaps try
an internist at a larger hospital or vet school if there are any nearby,
or a cat specialist.
I think it is better to start IV. It is not prescription, and you have
it, so all you really need is someone who can do IV shots, not necessarily
a vet. If you know anyone in rescue, they will probably know someone who
can do it. the woman who runs the shelter where my cats came from did the
shots for mine. if you know any vet techs, they can definitely do it.

Hi Michelle
It, immuno-regulin, came in the mail today. Problem is the vet who saw
Junior, thinks it is time to put him down. He is much better today. He
still has the sniffles. I need to find someone to do the injections. I
just searched the archives about doing subcutaneous injections. I could
probably do these, but I did not order any needles. I will try to stop by
the other vets office tomorrow to see what they can do. They are just so
busy that their appointment schedule is booked 6 weeks ahead. However they
did do the emergency testing of the 9 cats after Junior tested positive.
Funny thing is I think this post was made today. How timely for me.
Junior is so sweet. Today he is playful. He has some more living to do.
