Belinda, We were just concerned about sedating him to put the e-tube in, since he's weak and his RBCs so low. Have any of you ever had an e-tube placed in a cat that was this anemic? Again, any information or advice I can glean from all of you is most appreciated and heeded, since this is my first FeLV kitty to crash.
