Welders use tanks of oxygen and you can rent or buy them, just don't know if
the oxygen in them would be considered safe to breathe.

Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] anyone know how to make an Oxygen tank?
A vet can write one. Best to buy one if possible. Getting some companies
to rent one for use for a pet can be difficult. A question: divers have
tanks. Can one be converted for use?

I had one but passed it on to someone else - can't remember who. The
husband of a local rescuer, an engineer, had made it, and she passed it
on to me. He had covered the openings of a carrier with plastic, and
attached a connector that the oxygen tank attached to. Course oxygen
tanks aren't readily available, you have to have a prescription for
them.

Hi,
I'm relatively new to this board. I'm so glad that something like this
exists for people with fiv cats. There's some really great advice on
here. I have a question: someone told me about home- made Oxygen tanks
for cats. I have an fiv kitty who also has asthma. I'm cautious about
using Steroids on her. One time she ahd a really bad episode,
couphing, panting, and lying on her side. IT was awful. I rushed her
to the vet. THey of course had an Oxygen tank. Anyway, I'd really
appreciate the instructions, if anyone had them. Thank you, Claudia
