RE: new addition to the family

2007-04-20 Thread Melissa Lind
Hi Jeni,

Bless you for taking another! Meer and my Cassidy would get along great!
He's living in my office--never thought about the bathroom :). But, I
completely understand about husbands. Mine is very tolerant, as I'm sure
yours must be, but I have one foster in the office and 2 in the garage, um,
his garage. Then we have 3 of our own! So, I'd love to take your kittens,
but his back is close to breaking! Luckily he's been working a lot lately,
and just sleeps at home. Soon he'll want to use his "man cave" (garage).
Best of luck finding homes for the new ones!

Melissa

Hi,
I just wanted to write and thank everyone for thier kind words about 
Hillman's passing and also wanted to say sorry to anyone that has lost a 
baby in the last few weeks.

After we lost Hillman a few weeks ago, I wasn't on the search to find 
another feluk, but what do you know I just brought another one home.  His 
name is Meer (means chief in hindu (i think hindu)) and he is a beautiful 
big black and white male.  He was pulled from a city shelter and we found 
out he was feluk positive and now he is home with me.  He is on a few meds, 
for his cold and eye discharge...fun fun fun.  Hopefully the girls, will 
like him when they get a formally introduction.  Poor guy has to live in my 
bathroom right now.
And now on to a plea
I might have to find homes for possibly 4 kittens, right now they are only 
three weeks old but only one tested positive on the snap and IFA and needs a

home.  I am willing to foster until 8 weeks old, but can not keep...she is 
really really cute...tabby and white.  The other three her litter mates did 
not test positive on the snap and so are going to be re-tested in july and 
hopefully they do not test positive, but if they do then they will need 
homes too.  Anyone out there want to help...willing to travel and will 
supply food and liter box and carrier.  If need a longer fostering then I 
can do that, but not too long.  My husband has been a saint, but I think the

cat I just brought in, will be the cat that broke the camels back (my 
husband's back) and I can not keep another one.  Please help, I know it's 
easier to adopt out babies then adults.  In the new york area...please email

me with any questions or suggestions!
Thank you
Jeni

RE: [feline-hyperT] OT:Natural Balance-Melamine

2007-04-20 Thread Melissa Lind
Hi Patti and the gang! 

 

I hope everything is going better for you guys! I can't offer much advice
since I've been feeding the same thing to these guys with no problems
(Science Diet C/D Multicare Dry). But, it's scary considering that canned
food has been recalled by Hill's. I can't feed my cats canned food since
Bandit ultimately vomits it up. Anything too rich or too new or too exciting
makes him chuck. He's also the one with the urinary tract problems, so I
just give them all C/D since it's impossible to feed them separately. Since
I'm new to the pet health thing, I'm probably doing something wrong. You all
seem to know much more about what to feed your pets than I do. The vet said
it was okay to feed them all C/D, so I am. 

 

But, I think I'll try cooking for them occasionally. One of my babies will
not eat "people" food, but the others would be delighted. 

 

Patti-hang in there! I know it's frightening not being able to control a
situation-I'm a control freak, so I understand! My only advice (since I'm
not an expert on feline health!) is meditational breathing! :-) It won't
give you the answers, but it might give you peace amongst the chaos. In
fact, I'd better get back on the yoga track myself! I've been having daily
freak outs as well! You're not alone! But, seriously, yoga/meditation really
is a great way to calm down and deal with the things we can't deal with. If
that makes any sense.

 

Hugs and calm vibes,

Melissa

Patti, please don't feel like you are alone.  I get
upset too.  I get so mad that what we are feeding our
babies might poison them.  I have several cats and 2
dogs.  Many are on different diets so it seems like I
am constantly rechecking labels when something new
comes out.  I just switched the dogs to California
Natural I hope it is O.K.  I am like you I do research
and try to find a good safe food but now days who
knows! I am having a problem with getting the cats to
eat anything new.  I am going to just continue feeding
them what I have because so far nobody seems like they
are sick.  I am keeping my fingers crossed. I worry
about all the food that I am feeding. I know how
upsetting it is but please know that everybody knows

FELV+ Siamese: NJ....ASAP Needs Home!

2007-04-20 Thread TatorBunz
 
 
Tai Chi (FELV+) was apparently a breeder cat that was tossed 
outside.  He is sweet, but most comfortable in his cage. He was 
trapped after being  spotted for months behind a church...when the 
woman feeding him suspected  that the neighbors were trying to poison him.

Tai Chi likes to be picked  up and cuddled on the couch. He rolls all 
over for belly rubs and purrs  alot! He has progressed well in foster 
care, but needs a family of his  own.

Tai Chi is a seal point siamese, about 2 yrs old, with a few dashes  
of WHITE in his tail. He would like a quiet home, where he can hide 
for  a while until he is comfortable.
He tested FELV positive but is healthy. He  likes other cats! He is a 
skittish, but, I do not believe he was stay that  way!

Tai Chi is currently living in a large cage in my living room...but  
he is ready for a larger space...which I do not have available. He 
needs  a home...or a FOSTER home, please.

Hello everyone,
   
   
  My male cat who is three years old has just been dx with leukemia. The vet 
said all we can do at this point is try to make him feel better. He apparently 
has been born with it even though he tested negative. My other cat tested 
negative. They are indoor cats. He's eating a little.  I'm new to all of this 
and don't know what to expect. I hope he has a chance of getting better. His 
gums are just starting to get paler. The good thing is he has been coming out 
of the cabinents.

Welcome Mary. 

 

I'm sorry to hear about your kitty. What's his name? I'm new here as well,
but I've found that these people are very knowledgeable and caring. They all
know what it's like, what to expect, and they'll help you. My vet
recommended that I put my FeLV rescue down even though he has no symptoms
and only tested positive on the Elisa test. He's still awaiting the IFA
results to confirm. I came here and realized that there is so much more a
person can do for and FeLV kitty. Although the people on this group are not
vets, they have had many diverse experiences that can really help you think
about all your options and what to discuss with your vet. Best wishes to you
in this sad time.

Ember update

2007-04-20 Thread Lance

First, thank you Nina and Wendy for your thoughts on the VO situation.

Ember had an appt. today, and we got some disappointing results.  
She's lost 7/10ths of a pound since her last visit in February. I  
think some of that can be attributed to my switching foods and some  
schedule changes. Hopefully, there isn't anything serious causing  
that particular issue. Unfortunately, her WBC is down again to 4.7  
from 5.5 two months ago. Fortunately, she is not anemic this time.  
Her RBC is still hanging at the mid-normal point (I think it was 36.2  
or 36.5).


I'm fairly certain that we'll be ordering the VO soon, since there is  
a symptom (low WBC). Does anyone happen to know a vet who has had  
lots of experience with VO and immune system issues, including FeLV?  
I'd like to set up a consult call with someone knowledgeable of the  
road we're preparing to take.

Re: new to the group- Mary

2007-04-20 Thread Nina
Hi Mary and welcome.  We need more information about exactly what is 
going on with your kitty, (what's his name?).  It sounds like it may be 
anemia, (pale gums).  The thing to keep in mind is that felv does not 
make them sick in and of itself.  Felv damages the immune response and 
leaves them susceptible to other illness and cancers.  I don't know what 
condition your baby is in, if he's still eating and participating in 
household activities, that's a good sign.  You're vet may be right in 
that there is nothing more you can do, but a great many vets do not have 
much experience with felv so they don't know that treating the specific 
illness that presents itself can and does restore our guys to health and 
longer life.  What has your vet done so far in diagnosing your kitty's 
illness, (besides run the test for felv)?  Depending on the underlying 
reason for the anemia, there are different treatments, (the same 
treatments that would be done for any cat with a particular anemic 
reaction).   Did your vet run a blood panel?  Did he test for 
Hemobartenella?  Whatever is going on, I am highly doubtful that there 
isn't more you can do than "make him comfortable".


Tell us more, we're here to help and support you in any way we can,
Nina

Re: Ember update

Lance,
All my prayers and good wishes that whatever is causing Ember's weight 
loss and lowered wbc is transitory and that she continues to be her 
perfect little self in every way.


I really respect my Internist and her office did help me get my VO, but 
I don't think I'd call them experts on it's use. They were the ones that 
made up the vet info package for the FDA dispensation, so I know they 
are willing to help other vets. You or your vet's office could contact 
my vet's liaison, Michelle Rose, at Veterinary Medical and Surgical 
Group in Ventura CA (805-339-2290) and see if they can help.

Blessings,
Nina

Bless you for taking another! Meer and my Cassidy would get along great!
He's living in my office--never thought about the bathroom :). But, I
completely understand about husbands. Mine is very tolerant, as I'm sure
yours must be, but I have one foster in the office and 2 in the garage, um,
his garage. Then we have 3 of our own! So, I'd love to take your kittens,
but his back is close to breaking! Luckily he's been working a lot lately,
and just sleeps at home. Soon he'll want to use his "man cave" (garage).
Best of luck finding homes for the new ones!

Hi,
I just wanted to write and thank everyone for thier kind words about
Hillman's passing and also wanted to say sorry to anyone that has lost a
baby in the last few weeks.

After we lost Hillman a few weeks ago, I wasn't on the search to find
another feluk, but what do you know I just brought another one home.  His
name is Meer (means chief in hindu (i think hindu)) and he is a beautiful
big black and white male.  He was pulled from a city shelter and we found
out he was feluk positive and now he is home with me.  He is on a few meds,
for his cold and eye discharge...fun fun fun.  Hopefully the girls, will
like him when they get a formally introduction.  Poor guy has to live in my
bathroom right now.
And now on to a plea
I might have to find homes for possibly 4 kittens, right now they are only
three weeks old but only one tested positive on the snap and IFA and needs a

home.  I am willing to foster until 8 weeks old, but can not keep...she is
really really cute...tabby and white.  The other three her litter mates did
not test positive on the snap and so are going to be re-tested in july and
hopefully they do not test positive, but if they do then they will need
homes too.  Anyone out there want to help...willing to travel and will
supply food and liter box and carrier.  If need a longer fostering then I
can do that, but not too long.  My husband has been a saint, but I think the

cat I just brought in, will be the cat that broke the camels back (my
husband's back) and I can not keep another one.  Please help, I know it's
easier to adopt out babies then adults.  In the new york area...please email

me with any questions or suggestions!
Thank you

Bless you for taking another! Meer and my Cassidy would get along great!
He's living in my office--never thought about the bathroom :). But, I
completely understand about husbands. Mine is very tolerant, as I'm sure
yours must be, but I have one foster in the office and 2 in the garage,
um,
his garage. Then we have 3 of our own! So, I'd love to take your kittens,
but his back is close to breaking! Luckily he's been working a lot lately,
and just sleeps at home. Soon he'll want to use his "man cave" (garage).
Best of luck finding homes for the new ones!

Melissa

Hi,
I just wanted to write and thank everyone for thier kind words about
Hillman's passing and also wanted to say sorry to anyone that has lost a
baby in the last few weeks.

After we lost Hillman a few weeks ago, I wasn't on the search to find
another feluk, but what do you know I just brought another one home.  His
name is Meer (means chief in hindu (i think hindu)) and he is a beautiful
big black and white male.  He was pulled from a city shelter and we found
out he was feluk positive and now he is home with me.  He is on a few
meds,
for his cold and eye discharge...fun fun fun.  Hopefully the girls, will
like him when they get a formally introduction.  Poor guy has to live in
my
bathroom right now.
And now on to a plea
I might have to find homes for possibly 4 kittens, right now they are only
three weeks old but only one tested positive on the snap and IFA and needs
a

home.  I am willing to foster until 8 weeks old, but can not keep...she is
really really cute...tabby and white.  The other three her litter mates
did
not test positive on the snap and so are going to be re-tested in july and
hopefully they do not test positive, but if they do then they will need
homes too.  Anyone out there want to help...willing to travel and will
supply food and liter box and carrier.  If need a longer fostering then I
can do that, but not too long.  My husband has been a saint, but I think
the

cat I just brought in, will be the cat that broke the camels back (my
husband's back) and I can not keep another one.  Please help, I know it's
easier to adopt out babies then adults.  In the new york area...please
email

me with any questions or suggestions!
Thank you
Jeni
Nookie, Cree and Meer

OT - homemade dog food recipes

2007-04-20 Thread Nina

I know this is ot, but since so many people are looking for recipes...

I was turned on to this dog nutritionist's website by someone I trust 
today.  http://www.monicasegal.com/
There's a lot of good info there and she also sent out 2 recipes for 
homemade dog food with the stipulation that they are only intended to be 
used while you do your research and find the right recipe for your 
particular dog's long term needs.  If you are interested, email me off 
list and I'll send them to you.
