Hi All,
I know this is a major shot in the dark, but here goes: I was contacted
by a woman who took a friendly stray female kitten to the vet, after the
cat sustained a leg injury. The combo test showed Feleuk positive.
This is a (reportedly) sweet short-hair gray tabby, with golden eyes.
They are estimating the cat, named Cupcake, is about six months old.
She is not spayed, and has not gone into heat yet. The woman feels
unable to take the cat into her own home, as she has other kitties, even
though they have been vaccinated for feleuk. She has paid for the leg
injury to be sutured and cared for, and for the week-long boarding at
the vet's office. Cupcake is at Danny King's Bellevue Animal Hospital.
The woman can't afford to keep paying for boarding, and plans to have
the cat euthanized on Tuesday, after she takes her daughter over to say
good-bye to the cat. So we're looking at sometime around 3:00pm or so.
If anyone has any leads,or is able to take this little girl, please
*call* me at 615-662-2386 ASAP. Leave a message if I don't answer.
The woman has already called all the Bellevue-area animal hospitals, and
looked on PetFinder.com for rescues that are listing Feleuk cats in the
area--there are none. I did suggest that she call Chris at the Cat
Shoppe tomorrow, in case Chris knows of anyone who might take the
kitty. Any suggestions or offers of help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Katherine
PS. Those of you who are outside of Nashville or Tennessee (Hi, Tad!)
are being contacted on the off-chance that you may know someone from the
'Net in this area who might be able to help.
