Lyprinol for arthritis and inflammation
Here's the link to product info about Lyprinol, of course it could very well be biased. It's too late for me to read about it tonight, but there is a button for "research", so I'll look into it when my eyes aren't so squinty. http://www.lyprinol.com/home.htm Title: LYPRINOL - Miracle from the Sea This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.
Re: Jersey
You're referring to Leptospirosis, a bacterial infection not only found in dogs or cats, but also contagious to humans and most mammals, I believe. Nasty stuff. Not very common in cats, though would almost surely only be found in outdoor cats (thought to be transmitted via drinking contaminated water, or eating infected prey, such as rats). Probably worth testing for if nothing else can be found wrong in cases where there is unexplained acute kidney failure. My mom actually caught this once when camping in Texas, but she got very ill, and it was caught early (because she felt so bad she went to the hospital, where they diagnosed it right away), and a round of strong antibiotics cleared it right up. I, on the other hand, drink drainage ditch water on my hikes, and have never caught anything, go figure! I guess Vermont is a bit too cold for these things maybe (or maybe just an environmentally cleaner state)?

Re: emergency advice on starved cat needed
Jenn, My mom bought a "heating pad" made especially for cats. I'm not sure which one she got, I'll ask her. I did a quick search for heating pads designed for cats, (to not get too hot). Here's the link: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/pic/article.cfm?aid=511 I also heard about a supplement for inflammation on my IBD list. It's used for arthritis in humans, I think. I don't know that much about it yet. It's called Lyprinol. The two ladies that are trying the Lyprinol have been adding one capsule to a day's rations, just to be on the safe side. So far we're getting good reports. I'm thinking of using it for Zevon's back problems. Why don't you ask your vet if they've heard of it? Here's the paste from the IBD list: Lyprinol is a brand name. It's available in a lot of places---Walgreens probably even has it. I looked at the Vitamin Shoppe on line($32) and at www.wholesalesupplementstore.com ($23). The gelcaps are tiny and hard to divide up into different doses, but Dana has been communicating with Enzymatic Therapy, the distributor, whose rep said to give a cat a whole capsule.

Re: meet_Jersey
Stan, syringe feeding is not that difficult, and no, it does not require any prescription or even a trip to the vet, because you can buy everything you need online (though it may be easier just to get the syringes from the vet). Here is a great website that tells you step by step how to go about syringe feeding: http://www.assistfeed.com/FeedingTechniques.htm And here is another webpage from that same site that talks all about cats that don't eat, and gives you all the info and details you could ever need: http://www.assistfeed.com/FelineAnorexia.htm And, here is a website where you can order syringes for feeding Jersey (he's a very cute little guy, BTW): http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=3393&Ntt=feeding%20syringe&Ntk=All&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&Np=1&N=2002&Nty=1 Jennhttp://ucat.us/domesticcatlinks.html No virus found in this outgoing message.

Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Hi - Belinda would you add Sam to the Candlelight Service, special needs list? Sam is lost. He belonged to an older lady whose family we know. She became sick and I found a foster home. The foster mom accidently let Sam outside last weekend, and he hasn't been seen since. Susan and I've been going over and passing out flyers and looking for him in the neighborhood. Sam is a 17 year old Siamese cat, never been outside before that I know of. Prayers and good thoughts and vibes are appreciated. Thanks - Gloria

Re: meet_Jersey
Oh Stan, what a handsome fellow your Jersey is. I'm praying you and he find the help you need. There is an internet group for assisted feeding, (with syringes). Here's the link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Feline-Assisted-Feeding/ Getting him to eat the baby food is good, any food is good right now, but baby food doesn't have all the good stuff he needs to stay strong, (like Taurine and maybe potassium if that is the problem with his back legs). If he won't eat on his own and you need to syringe feed him, (force feed him using a feeding syringe, (no needle), you can put vitamins and supplements in with his food to make sure he's getting the nutrition he needs. People use a syringe because they can load it up with food, (instead of medicine), and slowly get the cat to swallow it by plunging the food into his mouth. The folks on the assisted feeding group could help you with things like that. Give them a little history about you and what's going on with Jersey, tell them you've never done assisted feeding before and ask for their help. You really need a vet that will help you do what's best for Jersey. I'm afraid most vets are expensive though. You might as well find one that you trust to help you do whatever you need to for that handsome fellow of yours. I can "hear" how much you love Jersey. We're all praying for the two of you. Please let us know how you are doing. Nina stany petrov wrote: Hi all again, I just forgot that 2 months ago I put a picture of Jersey in a photography contest online.

Re: Jersey_question
try posting the question on www.petfinder.org website. they have bulletin boards where you can post about various topics and as I recall there is a health board so maybe if you put in your subject header-looking for great vet in Toledo Ohio--you might get some responses. Sometimes too it just takes a little aggressiveness on the pet owner's part to jumpstart a vet into action. call the vet's office and ask to speak to the vet you saw over the phone and state your case as Tracy suggested. (no need to make an appt to just state your determination.) If the vet says they can't help, then ask them to recommend a specialist. oh, also on petfinder site you can type in your zip code under rescue and shelter search and it'll bring up a list of rescues in your area. you could try calling any cat rescue that has special needs kitties and ask them for a vet reference. good luck. praying hard for Jersey.

That was all he accepts- there is pottasium inside. I give him some chease and cream chease sometimes. Today, i got the science diet. I read a lot of positive comments in that forum. Actually, there is a ray of light today. he is little bit better than yesterday and was able to get to his litter box. I know the food is very important now. He is still not getting a can of food. How does the syringe feeding works? Do i need a medical prescription? The vet is really very pesimistic, she is a kind of beginner, very anxious. Thanks for the moral support. I will keep fighting.

Re: Jersey
Belinda, I was feeding him with the baby food so far (2 little jars a day). That was all he accepts- there is pottasium inside. I give him some chease and cream chease sometimes. Today, i got the science diet. I read a lot of positive comments in that forum. Actually, there is a ray of light today. he is little bit better than yesterday and was able to get to his litter box. I know the food is very important now. He is still not getting a can of food. How does the syringe feeding works? Do i need a medical prescription? The vet is really very pesimistic, she is a kind of beginner, very anxious. Thanks for the moral support. I will keep fighting. You are right that he is a young cat. Who knows???

Jersey got better but not exactly as before. The temp. was about 102.4- 102.5 and I let him out again. He likes hiking and if I lock the cat door he is starting to meow and scratch and tear the things around him. So, that was in March. And finally in late April, early May he started going outside and stay home which is not a good indicator for him. Finally he started loosing weight and walking hard with his back legs. I will stop visiting this vet and try to feed him more but...I hardly think he will survive. His kidneys are a little bit arger than the normal and he has the symptom of the Polysyst Kidney disease- drinking lots of water and loosing weight and appetite. I am confused.

Re: emergency advice on starved cat needed
Jenn, Hooray for Bones and her new family! I love her and I've never even met her. I knew you two didn't have a chance of escaping her charm! Nina [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Laurie. I've named her "Bones". She's going to live, in fact she's looking very good now. All rehydrated and eating well on her own now. I'm awaiting funds to get her to the vet, I wont have any money until Wednesday. However, she seems to be MUCH improved with just some home nursing. My main concern now is that she seems to have an injury in her pelvis or back, as she has limited motion, and is in pain when she moves (or is moved). I've called two different vets, and both say I am doing everything right so far, and that even if it IS a pelvic fracture, they usually do NOT repair those, and just let them heal on their own. I'm keeping her in a small room so she does not injure herself further for now, until I can know for sure where the injury is (if it's her back she needs to be as still as possible until it heals). She's eating the dry Innova Evo food, and drinking some water, but I am still supplementing her with the wet mixture of canned food, pedialyte and nutra-cal, for the extra hydration and calories, plus she's getting a cat vitamin a day. She has gone potty, and there is NO blood in her poop or pee, so that is a GREAT sign that either it is a very minor pelvic fracture, or not a pelvic fracture at all (the biggest danger of pelvic fractures in cats is that the sharp bone edges can lacerate the intestine and cause internal bleeding). Her first stool was very hard and dry, but her second one was very normal, she does not appear dehydrated at all anymore (the skin fold test). I think, at this point, she will live, and even recover with time. I have asked the vets if anyone has been missing a cat with her description, but they have not had her reported to their offices. I have not called the animal league yet, but plan to do so. I posted a notice in town, on a public note board, where everyone goes, and no responses so far. I have a feeling she was dumped. The story told to me by the kids who brought her to me for help is that she just "appeared" at his house. She had not been seen around there until the day she showed up, and he immediately brought her to me. I plan to keep her rather than adopting her out like I have done with my past rescues (we've become very attached to her already, she has a very sweet soul). I'll update everyone after I get her to the vet, and let you all know what is wrong with her as soon as I know. Jenn http://ucat.us http://ucat.us/domesticcatlinks.html ~~~ If the cat is dehydrated, she need fluids in a hurry. She may not be able to drink enough on her own and may need intravenous fluids. She also needs good nutrition. I don't know if any of the supplements you mentioned is advisable for her. I am not a vet and cannot give you medical advise. I can only tell you what I have seen and heard on the Animal Planet shows about medical care of cats. Cats can develop both kidney and liver problems after not eating for several days. If you don't know how long she had been without food or water, you can't know the extent of any medical problems. I hope you have taken her to a vet for advice. . A vet is the only one who can tell you if she has any of these medical problems and determine the proper course of treatment. A vet can also determine if she has a microchip that can help find her family. Have you called your local humane society or other local shelters to see if they have had any calls for a missing cat matching her description? These resources can probably also give you more medical information than you can get from many of the people who post and read these messages. I absolutely would not give her any sports drinks. I don't trust most of them for humans and I don't even want to think about what they can do to cats. The last posting I have seen from you was from yesterday.

Jamie, Now that's just down right weird! Long life to Apollo! I'm thrilled to hear the life span estimation is longer than it used to be. I love those Danes! Such gentlemen and ladies, so much better behaved than most children. Nina Jamie Laws wrote: Nina, Funny you should say that. I don't know if I have mentioned it since re-joining the List, but one of my dogs IS a Great Dane. And he turned 3 last month. They have actually upped the lifespan average to 7-10 years IF they are well cared for. This is true of all the giant breeds- they have shorter life spans. Anyway, the vet told me that the bigger they are, the shorter they should be expected to live. Odd how breeding for size (backyard breeding anyway) is what people want- I want the BIGGEST Dane on the block is the mindset. Well, I want the healthiest. So I am GLAD that Apollo is small for a GD. He is 120 pounds and that is the small end for a female! He "should be" 160-180 but I guess he was the runt. He did come from the shelter where I was volunteering. A 7 week old pure bred Great Dane puppy doesn't come in the door often and when he did I grabbed him. So, anyway, I thought your analogy was very ironic. And very true. I will use that the next time a vet suggests that you should PTS a Felv+ cat just because they are Felv+. Jamie __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: Jersey
Hi Stan, Just for my own curiousity, did you try any of the good suggestions you where given, I only ask because you never posted about any results of anything you tried? You where given some great suggestions, the liver shake, syringe feeding (if your not getting atleast a can of food a day it isn't going to do any good and Jersey will get weaker and weaker, not eating for a cat will bring on a whole slew of other deadly problems), and many suggested a new vet. I told you that Jersey's potassium was low this is a fact and this ASOLUTELY causes back end weakness, the fact that the vet your seeing didn't say anything about it ESPECIALLY after you told her Jersey is having backend weakness tells me she isn't a very good vet, and probably doesn't see any point in treating a positive cat. I'm not guessing at this I belong to several lists and many cats going through chemo have low potassium problems and EVERY SINGLE ONE'S first symptom is back end weakness. Have you asked your vet about doxycyline for the possible hemobartonella? I remember you saying you were going to try everything in your power to help Jersey so I'm just curious as to what results you got from the things you tried. I know you have tried the interferon which is very good, but it isn't going to help the backend weakness. How much food are you getting into Jersey a day? Jersey is a young cat and has a good chance of bouncing back. I'm not trying to be harsh, I'm just concerned, and emotionally involved now, so forgive me for asking these questions, but you asked for help and I'm just curious what you've tried and what the results where. -- Belinda Happiness is being owned by cats ...

I think I will put Jersey to sleep tomorrow. It is not fair to leave an outdoor cat suffer and not be able to walk. I think not the leukimia but the kidney progressive failure is killing him.

Some of you may, or may not know about my newest rescue cat, Bones. She was almost dead when some local kids brought her to me last Wednesday night. I have nursed her out of severe hypothermia and starvation, but I am fairly sure she has a broken back (she still needs x-rays, and has an appointment on Wednesday). She is going to need surgery to stabilize the bones in her back, to ever get to have any normal quality of life, and be free of the pain she is in (she is in extreme pain if she moves at all now, it has gotten worse today than it was). I will be calling around tomorrow to area vets to get an estimate of the costs, and I will probably need help. If anyone can donate any amount to help Bones get her surgery, we would be very grateful. I will be setting up a special fund, and as soon as I know which vet I will be using, I will post the info.

I lost my beloved Do-Dah to a broken spine in 1998, and this is very hard for me, but I refuse to let Bones die from injuries that could be fixed if only we had money. I will be working many hours and doing everything I can to get her into surgery as quickly as possible. The sooner she gets her spine stabilized, the better chance she will have of ever being able to walk again (she could walk yesterday, today she can barely stand). Of course, even if she needs a wheelchair, I will still be keeping her and doing everything I can to help her have as good of a quality of life as I possibly can.

Hi, To help her not to move very much and not to step very high you may want to try the following: For a "Litter Pan" that is easy to use take apart a carrier, using the bottom part put a large "Pyrex" pan filled with litter in it. The reason for this is using the bottom of the carrier with cut down on the litter being kicker all over the place. And the reason for the "Pyrex" pan is due to its weight it will not be tipped over and also it is so easy to disnfect.
