Re: [Felvtalk] FELV Transport to Best Friends
A toothache? Beginning Stomatitis? Stuffy nose and can't smell her food so she gives up? Did you change bowls, maybe to soak the old bowl and this is a new one? Washed the floor with something that has a scent? I always think simple before screaming and rushing out the door but of course, with a cat who is FeLv+ you shouldn't wait too long. Could it be something like constipation? A hairball sticking in her throat? Growly sounds like something is hurting her and she doesn't want the other cats to touch her. Going outside sounds like she wants to find a place to take a dump because she has had no success in the litter box. Just some ideas from my cats who have been there and done everything.

Makes a big difference between having a panicked cat in a carrier traveling for a few miles and having a lay back cat having a nap on the way. The worst it can do is nothing. It's not harmful and the cats all react much the same, either calm or not as stressed out as they would be. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too!

Re: [Felvtalk] Nutrition and new FeLV positive kitten (Lisa)/REPLY
Yes, that ino does help. Thanks. I'll look for the Nutra-Cal. Is it sort of like "Ensure"? Or is it that brown gel like substance that comes in a tube? I used to give my one cat who had hepatitis that stuff. Don't know if it's the same. I'll check it out. It's funny but Chloe, FELV pos does not like the dry Sci Diet food that much. She prefers wet food. She's very finicky and i go thru lots of cans for her since she is so fussy.

Makes a big difference between having a panicked cat in a carrier traveling for a few miles and having a lay back cat having a nap on the way. The worst it can do is nothing. It's not harmful and the cats all react much the same, either calm or not as stressed out as they would be. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too!

Re: [Felvtalk] FELV Transport to Best Friends
I have transported several real scaredy cats by plane, in the cabin. I always used a harness with a leash on them and a pillow case over them when I took them out of the carrier to go through security. I merely picked up the pillow case, with the open end together in a bunch, leash hanging out.then slipped the pillowcase with cat back into the carrier, and removed the leash from the harness so he wouldn't get entangled. Eventually the cat made himself comfortable in the pillow case and even peeked out from the inside. The TSA people thought that I was nuts, with all those precautions - giggling, making fun - I asked them if they would you prefer an escaped cat, 'cause I wouldn't! Even if this cat is sedated, please get a harness and a leash as an extra precaution! You never know how they can react, maybe even freak out!

Re: [Felvtalk] 2 Darling Devils..
What kind of a vet would suggest euthanasia of cats that once had a cold? With vets like that, who needs enemies! The same goes for having a cold that would be a corona virus, which often makes diagnosis of FIP hard because it's also a corona virus.OMG - I have NEVER, ever, heard of anything like that! It's not a stigma, nor should it be, and never has been for us; most people have no idea what all that means, unless some vet scares the hell out of them with such nonsense ..
