[Felvtalk] ISO FeLV+
Saw this on Detroit area Craig's List last night, thought I'd pass it along... WANTED: FELV OR FIV POSITIVE KITTEN (Troy) -- Reply to: comm-1037835...@craigslist.orgcomm-1037835...@craigslist.org?subject=wanted:%20FELV%20OR%20FIV%20POSITIVE%20KITTEN%20(Troy) [? http://www.craigslist.org/about/help/replying_to_posts] Date: 2009-02-16, 9:27PM EST I am in search of an FELV or FIV positive kitten. Our cat died a few months ago and we miss him a lot :( Seeing we don't have any other cats now, I'd like to provide a home for one that may not have much of a chance otherwise. Preferably long haired, male, neutered, and would really prefer that he was declawed because my husband would probably fall over and die if he woke up one morning to a shredded couch. It's a long shot I'm sure, but if there's something out there, here I am. lol - Location: Troy - it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests PostingID: 1037835806 -- Copyright (c) 2009 craigslist, inc.terms of usehttp://www.craigslist.org/about/terms.of.use.html privacy policy http://www.craigslist.org/about/privacy_policyfeedback forum http://detroit.craigslist.org/forums/?forumID=8 ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org

[Felvtalk] Assisted Feeding
My Macy is only 10 1/2 mos. and I took her to the vet yesterday because she had become lethargic and wasn't playing. My son is one of the vet techs so they know us and have been with Macy since we got her at 10 wks old. She was a feral cat in the neighborhood. We even tried catnip on her favorite toy, Mr. Lion. After an exam, urinalysis and blood work, the vet came in and just stood there, too upset to talk. Macy's blood count is so bad they don't know how she's even walking, although she still jumps up on furniture but not with much energy. They said she only has a few days. I've read about assisted feeding but don't recall anyone saying what they're feeding the cat. She is still eating a very small amount but if more is going to help her, we're willing to try anything. I'd appreciate any advice or suggestions. Dawn ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
Re: [Felvtalk] Assisted Feeding
Oh, I'm so sorry. She's just so young! You'll get more good advice here, but quickly, you should get some A/D from your vet. It's stinky in a way cats love, and it's a paste. You can try syringing it right from the can, or you can water it down and blend it and squirt it down the throat. It's richer than regular canned food. Or you can go and get some Gerber meat baby food, making sure there are NO ONIONS in it. Good luck with your baby.

Re: [Felvtalk] Assisted Feeding
You didn't say exactly what was bad in the blood work but I'm going to guess she was very anemic. If that is the case, you need more than assisted feeding. Depending on what the numbers are, she might need an immediate transfusion just to give you a little time to try some things and there is no guarantee. It is really hard to win against a fast moving anemia.

Re: [Felvtalk] Assisted Feeding
We bought our Buzz a few more months when he was anemic by giving him Doxycycline and Prednesolone. It all depends on if you are talking about anemia and why she is anemic. Whatever you do it needs to be fast. Anemia doesn't give you much time. - Original Message - From: gary gcru...@centurytel.net To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2009 6:25 PM Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Assisted Feeding You didn't say exactly what was bad in the blood work but I'm going to guess she was very anemic.
