Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS
If only all people would neuter/spay their animals, the world would be much better and we would be spared the heartache of dealing with the deaths of our furbabies we have adopted. Can not understand why people refuse to do this and why they just dispose of the unwanted babies by throwing them out for someone else to care for or to be killed by a car or dog or coyote.

I am so sorry to hear that Rosie has passed. I really hoped that at least one would be spared a while longer. They were a lucky bunch of kittens to have found you, so many people won't give even one positive a chance.

Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS
Part of it is understandable if you consider the extremely high cost of veterinarians - and most people are not aware of low-cost certificates, and the worst is that so few vets participate in those programs. I found out that in our area, a spay can be as much as $500 for a female cat - who, but the very rich (and they don't even want to part with their money) can afford this? When we were spaying and neutering cats that we trapped in Mexico, the vet charged us (his regular price) $55! Of course, for locals, even that is a terrifically high cost, that's why we paid for them. People are to blame for these horrible consequences - nobody should be homeless, not even animals. There was a show last Sunday morning on CBS with Charles Osgood - about animals, how many dogs and cat owners there are in the USA, how popular they are and how well they are cared for, pampered, doted on, to extremesNOT a single word about cats and dogs languishing in kill-shelters, in back alleys scrounging for survival, tortured and abused, dying from preventable diseases, hunger, and extreme weatherI've been too busy to write them a letter, although I still plan to. The story made it seem like all's well with cats and dogs!

That is ridiculous. The most I have paid is about $200 and that is laser with 3 days extra boarding (Lost two beautiful cats 3 days after they were spayed.

Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS
I live outside o NYC just got 2 stray kitties vaccinated, neutered, microchipped FELV tested. Had s/n certificates it still cost me $700. And my vet is far from the highest fee. We sometimes forget that vet care is getting as expensive as human med care. And when you consider that many people have more than one pet, the cost can be beyond their reach. At least w. humans, you know that if your child gets really sick, you can go to any emergency room--with pets, unless you've got the cash--you're not getting treatment. One vet about 10 miles from me charges $800 for male neuterand has customers! -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of MaiMaiPG Sent: Saturday, April 16, 2011 3:11 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS That is ridiculous.

FoA - 1-800-321-PETS or go to www.friendsofanimals.org and look for certificates on the right sidebar. They also give you a list of participating vets in your area.

Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS
Alice, You and your dear husband tried so hard to save these babies. I was saddened to read that Rosie has joined Murphy and her brothers at the Rainbow Bridge. We love them, care for them and in the end let them go. You gave Rosie the greatest gift you could - her freedom from suffering. We all understand the pain you are feeling. Rosie is now happily romping in the green meadows chasing butterflies with all our Angels. You both are in my thoughts and prayers.

When I came home from work last night, I knew it was time. Thank you to the wonderful vets and staff at Sacramento Cat Hospital for staying late so we could help Rosie join her man, Murphy at the bridge-he passed in October from Lymphoma and anemia. Rosie is our 6th and last FeLV kitty-her 4 brothers passed in their first year from anemia, despite all our efforts. I have never felt so defeated and empty in my life. I did not have a clue about FeLV when we rescued the feral babies. It has been a long and sad 2 years, Rosie and Murphy each just made it to 2 1/2 yrs old. Bless all of you fighting this battle-it is a long, and difficult journey, but these babies deserve all the love in the world. Alice with Miso and Sachi-the 2 negatives we adopted when Rosie got so depressed when she was left alone after Murphy passed. ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS
I am so sorry - I'm sure you will miss her terribly!

The Lymphoma had beat her. We had her on Pred and Leukeran-which shrank the mass near her throat the first week, then it came back with a vengeance the next week. We increased it to every other day on the Leukeran to no avail. She was also on Lasix, Lysine, iron, b vitamins, Interferon. She always came into the kitchen and waited for me to give her the meds, but the last few days she began to clamp her jaw, like enough. She was being syringe fed, she couldn't eat-the mass in her neck got so large and hard. Her eyes became empty and she just wanted to hide, she was miserable.

Re: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS
Oh Alice I am so sad to hear this news. You have loved Rosie and her pal Murphy and done all you could and more. My heart aches for your loss. Prayers for little Rosie's journey, and for your strength. Thank you for your love and compassion for these beings who otherwise would suffer so much more. Peace to you. ~Bonnie - Original Message - From: Alice Flowers aliceflow...@sbcglobal.net To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2011 8:09 PM Subject: [Felvtalk] Please add Rosie to CLS Rosie passed last night, I could not bear to watch her wasting away.
