I'm sorry for your loss. I love the name by the way. It takes special people to 
take in more leukemia cats when you know what you might be in for.  I hope your 
new baby lives a long and healthy life.

I, too,just lost a cat (although not a FeLV+), but a cat I had for 13 years 
and for the last two years, he was going through chemo for intestinal cancer.  
But prior to his passing, I agreed to take a cat that tested positive for FeLV 
and needed a home (I have had many FeLV+ cats, lost 3 last year to the 
disease).  I was unsure about following through with taking the new cat when 
Puddin'taine died even though I knew it was coming.  I went ahead and took the 
other cat and am so glad I did.  He has really blossomed and made himself at 
home--even helping to fill the void left behind.
   
  I mention this because I know that Snowball will do the same for you and Bob. 
 Every time I read where someone's pet has died and they say they can't go 
through that again and they decide "no more pets" I think how sad.  I know it's 
tempting, having lost so many (since I typically rescue FeLV+ cats, that is 
unavoidable) and it never gets easier, but sometimes sooner or sometimes later, 
another furry soul comes along and needs you (and you need him/her).  Here's 
wishing that you and Snowball have many many days together.

RE: Zeus Please add to the CLS :(

[MacKenzie, Kerry N.]

I'm so sorry to hear about Zeus, Sherry. Yes, given he's been there all
the time you've been volunteering, he will surely be missed hugely.
Let's hope wherever he is now, he's still able to enjoy his baby food!
hugs, Kerry

Well this was a bit of a shock for us. Zeus has been battling a URI and
we have had to keep his nose clean all the time.He was one big boy with
quite the cattitude.He would stalk me when I handed out individual
feedings at Sids.He loved baby food!! I used to argue with him but then
recently began a little bit of a friendship with him.He has been so
sweet the last couple of weeks.He has been there longer than I have been
volunteering,he will be missed by us all.I guess the infection moved
into his brain.Bye sweet Zeus

RE: add to the candlelight service - Sassy and Valentino

[MacKenzie, Kerry N.]

 
Gloria, I'm so sorry to hear the sad stories of Sassy and Valentino.
It's hard enough letting go of beloved foster cats, and then to hear
that things have gone tragically wrong, and, as you say,
*unnecessarily*, is just devastating.
I really am so sorry---please know you're in my thoughts.
Big hugs, Kerry M

He sounds like a wonderful, independent cat.  Thank you for caring  
about him and letting him leave this world loved.

Way OT, but we have to help this guy

[Kelley Saveika]

Ron Mason's cats were stolen from him under color of law by the LAPD, but
they were silly enough to put it on film:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_kJ9nGiVis

There are still ten of them at West Valley (which apparently is a shelter
in/near LA, or perhaps it is a police station, I am not clear on this issue)
living in tiny metal cages, some with signs on the cages stating they will
not be handled.  If anyone lives near LA, or just wants to help these cats
out, I can try to arrange transport.  I could not do anything to help my
stolen cats, but I can try to do something to help Mr. Mason's stolen cats.

None of these cats have FELV, but they deserve better than living in tiny
cages, untouched for months, when they had a happy home with Mr. Mason.

Check out Ed Muzika's blog for details.

Here is his latest statement on the cats:

Look you guys. Help get the rest of the Mason cats out of West Valley. Staff
will release them to whomever. The cost is $27 if they are spay/neutered,
$55 if not. I will spring for half the fee. Leave a comment and we'll
arrange a visit with Ron Mason to select the ones to go. They are still in
the evidence room.

Here's the URL to Ed's blog (which is excellent by the way).

http://laanimalwatch.blogspot.com/

Again, please forgive the OT post, but more of yall have LA contacts than I
doplease, please help these cats...I will be forever in your debt.
