What a beautiful girl! She sounds like a delightful kitty. You're doing everything right, and she knows how much you love her. Try to focus on having her now, rather than losing her in the future, and be happy. Diane R.

Oh, definitely, I would never let Missy go uncared for. But it is about time to take her to the cardiologist again and I'm scared. She's the best cat. She's not afraid of anything, and when peopel come over she will jump into their arms. She's never known anything but love, except when she was dumped at the shelter @ 8 weeks with her littermates, and I didn't let them stay there long. It was love at first sight with her though. I think I hold her at least 4 hours a day. She's very smart too. Here's her little picture: http://www.moonvine.net/missy On 12/26/06, Barb Moermond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Kelley, I think with most of us here on this list, that it's not seeing any other option (that can be comfortably lived with) but to care for these animals. We all get so much love from our animals, who just want to be loved in return. To not take care of an animal that has been adopted/rescued/brought into our lives is simply unthinkable. I believe that all of us have in common that when we take on the care of an animal, we assume 100% responsibility for every aspect of their well-being, no matter now uncomfortable or painful it is for us. The love and joy brought into our lives erases/subdues the painful bits. Maybe not right away, but it does.

Hi guys, I don't have an FELV+ that I know of, but I do have a kitty with VSM (ventricular septal defect) - a heart condition. She could die at any time, or she could live for quite a while. (If you could add her to the prayer list, that would be great). Her name is Missy, and I love her more than anything in the world. She had an echocardiogram and was diagnosed with VSM this summer. I think I have cried every day since. Before she had the echo I thought she would be dead every day when I got home. Now I'm sure she will be. Nice as the heart list people are, I can't really read that list; it is too close to home. I can barely read this one, and I cry a lot here too. How do yall stand it? I don't think I am strong enough.
