Re: Kitten with an enlarged heart...
Hi Liz, I don't know anything about this. I've never heard of it being 'ok' to have fluid around the heart. Maybe see an internist? That's what I would do, if the money was there Good luck and prayers to this kitten. tonya Elizabeth Paz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear friends, My cat kitty with Felv is doing fine at the moment. But I was wondering if anyone could give me any information on a kitten with an enlarged heart, also with some fluid around it. In the beginning of September my daughter rescued three little kittens all girls, my new little granfurbabies. One is now 22 weeks and the other two are now 16 weeks (these two are sisters). My daughter noticed one of the little sisters (Leia) was making a funny sound periodically so she took her to the vet today and he x-rayed her and said she had fluid around her heart and that the heart was also enlarged. The vet said there is no murmur and as far as he was concerned there does not seem to be any blockage. He said her heart seems to be working over time this is why it is enlarged, he told my daughter not to worry unless the little kitten opens her mouth and starts to pant then she should bring Leia back. Would anyone have any kind of info on this. I feel (and I could be wrong) that there may be something else that could be done. The vet said Leia is to young to be giving any kind of Meds . I don't want my daughter's heart (or mine ) to be broken if he is wrong. The vet told my daughter not to worry that Leia could grow out of this. Enlarged heart with fluid around it...I do feel worried. Any info would be appreciated. Thank You Liz. _ R U Ready for Windows Live Messenger Beta 8.5?

Re: Need some help
emancipet is quite a well-known mobile spay/neuter program in texas--with, as far as i've ever heard, a really good, transparent reputation until now. it really surprised me that a group that was so well respected would do this, especially in a place where the tensions are so well-known. i was im'ing last night with a friend in southern california, asking her about contacts in TX--she's mostly a feral rescuer, and was active in the hartz flea-product stuff (ie, not the crowds i generally hang with.) told her some of the what was going on, and she im'd someone else she knew to see if they had any contacts in austin: what she got back, IMMEDIATELY, was, there's a bad shelter there impossible to know, at this point, what the motivation was. personally, i wouldn't do anything to jeopardize kelley's chances of reclaiming her kitties -- so while i might contact emancipet about this AFTER the hearing, since i don't know what's behind it all. me On Apr 21, 1988 11:28 PM, Gloria Bronte Lane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Absolutely.

I haven't followed a lot of this but did ask one of my holistic vets about essences. She prefers Perelandra (www.perelandra-ltd.com ) over Bach. I have included the website in case you want to check it out. I know I will be since I am hooked on Bach right now. Good luck.

I was having a similiar issue with my kids. Waco, 9 yr old siamese who we are pretty sure is FeLV+ started getting real aggressive with 2 of my other weaker, sick cats. Yota, 8 yr old siamese, FeLV+ and Jake, 14 yr old orange tabby with an injured paw. I've been doing a lot of research into holistic treatments of FeLV because I had 2 vets tell me there is nothing that can be done for Yota (lympathic leukemia). I was at Good Earth (the natural/herb store) and was talking with a very nice sales lady and I happened to mention Waco's aggressive behavior. She suggested using a flower essense called Vine Essence. According to the book we were looking at it helps with domination issues. It helps cats who feel the need to pick on weaker, sick or smaller cats. She suggested putting it in their water or diliuting it and rubbing it on their ears when getting some luvs from you. She also told me that it would not affect the other cats if I put it in their water. The essenses only affect the one with issues. I also found an article that might help you if this is something your considering : http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0ISW/is_2002_June/ai_86387597 . All I know is that I used it and it worked. Now when Waco starts playing I AM ALPHA CAT I either rub some on his ears or put a couple of drops in his liquid vitamins and all that goes in a dropper straight down the hatch! And I hate to say this but you might have Penelope checked out. She could be sick or having issues your not aware of yet. Usually the alpha cats will harrass the weak or sick. Out in the wild these animals would be killed by the alpha. Just something to think about.

I hope someone can figure this situation out, because I'm at my wit's end. Two of my girls are NOT getting along, and I don't know what to do. Penelope (FeLV negative, 2 years old, very standoffish personality, not a friendly type cat, doesn't want to be held, only wants attention when SHE wants it, a loner, etc) and Grizzabella (FeLV positive, 7 years old, very friendly, never met a stranger, not so much a lap cat, but doesn't mind being petted and isn't afraid of strangers at all) are constantly at each other. :( They never really liked each other, but the last few months it has gotten progressively worse. To the point that Penelope is afraid to come out of the bedroom. She was pooping/peeing under the bed. And I know it was just because she was afraid of Grizzabella and wouldn't come out of the bedroom. We finally had to put a litterbox in there for her, and food/water. What I have noticed is they seem to attack each other, depending on their mood, but one always jumps the other. They can't even pass in the hall without fighting, and I don't know what to do. There doesn't seem to be any precursor/cuase. All it seems to take is one of them seeing the other and they're off. I'm really worried Bella is going to end up scratching Penny and infecting her. Right now when they start I just put Bella in the guestroom for a few hours so Penelope can come out of the bedroom, and then when we leave of the morning I let Bella out and Penelope spends the day in the bedroom. Any of you guys had any success with behavior modification? I welcome any thoughts/ideas on what has worked for you guys in the past. Poppy, the third one in the house proper, gets along with both of them, for the most part. I've seen Poppy jump Penny a time or two, but certainly nothing like

Dr. Jefferson had spent many years volunteering at shelters and fostering rescued animals, and she felt that her abilities as a veterinarian would be used most effectively if she could prevent unwanted animals from being born in the first place. EmanciPET was conceived as a high-volume, low-cost spay and neuter clinic that would be able to serve many different populations through its mobility. Low prices for spay and neuter surgeries provided an added incentive for pet owners unable or unwilling to pay conventional fees for these services. Since 1999, over 35,000 animals have been sterilized within the mobile hospital alone. In April 2005 the City of Austin donated a building for use as a stationary clinic. The building, EmanciPET World Headquarters, is located in southeast Austin within the City of Austin Health and Human Services complex at 7201 Levander Loop. Since opening the stationary clinic in 2005, EmanciPET has continued to operate its mobile clinic while steadily expanding capacity for services at EmanciPET World Headquarters. Partners EmanciPET relies on the cooperation and support of other Austin-area animal welfare organizations in pursuing the shared goal of a humane community. The City of Austin Since 2001, the City of Austin has funded two free days each week for pet owners who are residents of East Austin. Currently, East Austin residents who visit our mobile clinic on Friday or Saturday can receive free spay or neuter surgery, rabies vaccinations, city registration and microchipping for their pets. In addition to providing the building for our stationary clinic, the City of Austin allocates $80,000 per year for these free services in East Austin. This partnership has resulted in a significant decrease in the number of animal intakes at Town Lake Animal Center for the zip codes targeted by the program.* *EmanciPet determines which areas are target by using socioeconomic data as well as intake statistics given by our local shelters. Not surprisingly, the absence of regular veterinary hospitals is usually indicative of a target area.

Kyle PAWS, Lago Vista PAWS, and Pet Prevent A Litter (PALS) of central Texas have all used EmanciPET to handle free surgeries for low-income residents of their communities.

I have included the website in case you want to check it out. I know I will be since I am hooked on Bach right now. Good luck. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

I was having a similiar issue with my kids. Waco, 9 yr old siamese who we are pretty sure is FeLV+ started getting real aggressive with 2 of my other weaker, sick cats. Yota, 8 yr old siamese, FeLV+ and Jake, 14 yr old orange tabby with an injured paw. I've been doing a lot of research into holistic treatments of FeLV because I had 2 vets tell me there is nothing that can be done for Yota (lympathic leukemia). I was at Good Earth (the natural/herb store) and was talking with a very nice sales lady and I happened to mention Waco's aggressive behavior. She suggested using a flower essense called Vine Essence. According to the book we were looking at it helps with domination issues. It helps cats who feel the need to pick on weaker, sick or smaller cats. She suggested putting it in their water or diliuting it and rubbing it on their ears when getting some luvs from you. She also told me that it would not affect the other cats if I put it in their water. The essenses only affect the one with issues. I also found an article that might help you if this is something your considering :http:// findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0ISW/is_2002_June/ai_86387597 . All I know is that I used it and it worked. Now when Waco starts playing I AM ALPHA CAT I either rub some on his ears or put a couple of drops in his liquid vitamins and all that goes in a dropper straight down the hatch! And I hate to say this but you might have Penelope checked out. She could be sick or having issues your not aware of yet. Usually the alpha cats will harrass the weak or sick. Out in the wild these animals would be killed by the alpha. Just something to think about. Also, I was wondering what if any kind of treatments are you giving your FeLV+ cat? - Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Thursday, November 8, 2007 7:56:13 PM Subject: We are having issues Ok, guys. I hope someone can figure this situation out, because I'm at my wit's end. Two of my girls are NOT getting along, and I don't know what to do. Penelope (FeLV negative, 2 years old, very standoffish personality, not a friendly type cat, doesn't want to be held, only wants attention when SHE wants it, a loner, etc) and Grizzabella (FeLV positive, 7 years old, very friendly, never met a stranger, not so much a lap cat, but doesn't mind being petted and isn't afraid of strangers at all) are constantly at each other. : ( They never really liked each other, but the last few months it has gotten progressively worse. To the point that Penelope is afraid to come out of the bedroom. She was pooping/peeing under the bed. And I know it was just because she was afraid of Grizzabella and wouldn't come out of the bedroom. We finally had to put a litterbox in there for her, and food/water. What I have noticed is they seem to attack each other, depending on their mood, but one always jumps the other. They can't even pass in the hall without fighting, and I don't know what to do. There doesn't seem to be any precursor/cuase. All it seems to take is one of them seeing the other and they're off. I'm really worried Bella is going to end up scratching Penny and infecting her. Right now when they start I just put Bella in the guestroom for a few hours so Penelope can come out of the bedroom, and then when we leave of the morning I let Bella out and Penelope spends the day in the bedroom. Any of you guys had any success with behavior modification? I welcome any thoughts/ideas on what has worked for you guys in
