Just goes to show how wonderful you guys are to have loved the fur children 
that much that you never forget them!  I hope I'm always compassionate like 
that.  Having a tender heart like that is a good quality although it does mean 
you hurt more than some other people.

[Felvtalk] PLEASE HELP FRENCH FRY

[Linda Demiri]

Hello Everyone!

I am DESPERATELY. Trying to save a 1yr old male cat from EUTH... He tested 
positive on the initial test for FELV and also has a really bad case of 
calicivirus(its basically a BAD URI).  He was found in a borough of NYC 
saturated in cooking oil. He is currently being held at Animal Care and 
Control's at Manhattans Center. Anyway here is what I can do if you can provide 
a safe home...I will outright have a local rescue pull him and then fly him to 
wherever he needs to get to him to a safe place.  Please email me with any 
tips/ideas or ppl interested. 

Thank you All
Linda

I have facebook, it seems that everything on my news feed is about animal
rescue. :-)

I don't have facebook send any notifications to me email (I've also got it
going to my spam folder just in case). If I want to read something on
facebook, I just go do it.


Facebook is a great resource for rescues, though! It is definitely something
to think about. It would help reach a wider range of people that normally
wouldn't pay attention to cats, let alone special needs cats (like our FeLV+
babies).

Sherry,

So sorry to hear of your loss. I have a weakness for black cats and lost my 
sweet Chat Noir last month to FeLV.  Although he wasn't with me for very long 
he found a place in my heart with his funny, crazy antics. It's these memories 
that comfort me and I hope you find comfort in your own memories of your loving 
fur babies.

Sorry, I forgot to mention our three dogs that died - we are on our fourth
one now since we got married in 1968, although we vowed to stick to cats.
We found her when she was a teeny 2-month old, 4-lb puppy on the street in
MexicoShe thinks that she's a cat. No, one never forgets - it's like a
video going off in your mind, reliving all the details.

Personally, I would say, if you have a heart-connection with Amber (which it

certainly seems you do) and you are willing to help her enjoy whatever life
she

You may be pleasantly surprised by the outcome.  And Amber surely will be!

Re: [Felvtalk] Any advice appreciated.

[Natalie]

Our cats prefer the organic dried catnip - they eat it!  They pay no
attention to the spray at all.  In fact, even our dog loves the dried catnip
(has anyone heard that before?).  I place the small toys into a jar of
catnip, that way there's always a scent on them, and recycle the toys - in
and out of the jar.  There are some cats that don't respond to catnip at
all, and some cats don't playand the ones that don't, usually end up
finding their own toys like bottle caps, toilet paper rolls, etc.

Find a feather...maybe at a hobby storetease her gently.  Also try  
a catnip spray (forget the powdered stuff) and Feliway.  Oh yeah, my  
boys just reminded me that paper sacks are wonderful.

It is always painful when they leave but, if it wasn't, they would  
mean nothing.

When you get to age 78, like I am, you'll have lost way too many
cats.. I still feel sad about cats I lost 30 or 40 years ago.

Great news Alice.  Rosie is a fighter.  
Lots of purrayers for her.

WooHoo!! Rosie had a great check up today!! The mass in her throat / neck was 
so 

much smaller in just 3 weeks on the Pred / Leukeran regime. We are going to 
decrease the Prednisolone and keep up the Leukeran. Ultrasound showed no 
Lymphoma in her abdomen (so far)Her hot, red ears may get better with the 
lower dosage. Dr said she had good color, no temp. Looks like with luck and 
purrayers, she may be around to thump on Miso a bit longer!  Alice and the 
kids-Rosie, Miso and Sachi (the 2 negatives I adopted a few months ago)

Sherry, so sad to read that Wyatt and Booker T have crossed the Rainbow 
Bridge,.  Both sound like awesome cats.  Each loss hurts but these 2 sound very 
special.  You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

the summer and LOVED to give you hugs...both of these AWESOME Sids kids will be 
missed VERY much. :(
Thanks all
