Re: Sam is gone
Sam totally adored you and still does. Delilah's actions show that she knows what happened and is both relieved and sad. She will need extra attention for a while. You did so good. Sam sends his warmest thanks. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

Re: Sam
Procrit is used to boost red blood cell production, so if that were helping maybe the IR would too. I know there has been success with anemia using it. Michelle can tell you more, and others have posted sites about it. I'm sure you can Google it and come up with some stuff. From what I understand about it, (I haven't used it, but I did order some from Revival), it is a bacteria that is administered IV, (Cindy and Smokey on the list used it subq with good results), that helps the body by launching an attack against it and consequently boosting the immune system to fight whatever else might be going on. I know one of the side effect warnings include temp fever spike. I think Michelle said she's given it to two or three of her kitties and only one had the problem with fever. Another member, Kerry Roach had gotten it to try for her kitty, Bandy, but if she's reported back on it, I haven't seen her post. Here's the link to order: http://www.revivalanimal.com/product.asp?pn=31-020ss=immunoregulin It's also called EqStim, (marketed for use in horses), but it's the same med. If after discussing it with your vet, you think it might help, you can order it direct without a prescription. They can overnight it to you too. Blessings, Nina Helene Hand wrote: Thank you, Nina!

Re: RE: Sam from Helene
I'm not sure there is a fixed dose. I have always been told (by people who are really into holistic medicine and by a holistic vet) to give 4-5 drops in water or put 2-3 on his head or in his mouth. Do this as often as you think necessary. It has very little taste. Let me tell you a little about the Royal Princess Kitty Katt: She had cancer and we found out how badly it spread in November. The previous February she had made it very plain that she didnot want treated and we thought she would live 2-3 months. Given what I found out in November I decided that she would not have to travel again (she hated cars). This was extremely difficult as was letting her leave this world without assistance but it was the best thing I ever did for her. If Sam is in no pain you may want to let him leave on his own. Thank goodness your vet will come to the house. That is a blessing for both you and Sam. Any way you handle this will be right. But you are going to feel considerably more at peace if you are sure what Sam wants. Please calm yourself (easier said than done) and listen to him. I suspect it is not quite his time. Give him permission to leave and assure him you willbe fine but do not rush him. Kitty lived 15 months when thevets, including some very good specialists, said 2-3 and they were high quality months. If you can not calm yourself and listen, consider an animal communicator. But you are the one Sam loves and trusts and you are the one he will talk to best. My holistic vet gave Kitty an Alaskan essence called Calling All Angels. When I googled that phrase I got this website http://www.andiesisle.com/Calling_All_Angels.html I go there a lot when things are very rough. Try it. I wish I had had it while Kitty was on her journey from this world. Just so you know, she was never in any pain. She just got weaker and weaker then left. Again, try the website. You are in a lot of pain yourself and so is your family. May all the angels watch over you and Sam. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

Immuno-regulin and epogen? I would say the combo steroid shots, but if she already thinks he has diabetes, that probably would not be a helpful thing.

RE: Sam is FOUND!
Gloria! What a great news! I was doing meditations for Sam all weekend, dozens and dozens of times - hoping that he and you will be reunited - and someone I had a feeling that I would see your email saying that Sam is found!!! I am going to let Dr. Ryan know that- she did tell me that it is so amazing how you will be reunited with animals so quickly with the meditation - I don't know how much credit the meditation should take - but it seems like it's right after we got the meditation - anyway, congratulations to your hard work and I am so haaapy for you and Sam.

RE: Sam is FOUND!
This answered my question, Gloria. I am so glad that you have Sam, and have an intension to keep him unless it's a REALLY good home - I hope he will get to say with you for the rest of his life - or I would come pick him up to adopt him otherwise - I think you guys are meant to be together - and you and your friend Susan did such a good job! Every time when I am fortunate to enough to be reunited with animals that have been missing whether they are originally mine or not, I have a very difficult time to let them go to someone else - as I feel like god has given me the 2nd chance to take care of and I feel like I need to make sure they are well taken care of for the rest of their lives..

Re: Sam is FOUND!
Hey - I was doing meditations also, like you wrote me about. That fellow Sam sure gave us a scare... and some exercise. It took him a few hours to sidle up to his old pal Blue, once he got to my house, but now they're buddies again. He's a little skittish - when strangers come in or whatever it's back to hiding under the couch. Sam is sitting in my living room window! If a good forever home is interested, we'll see. Otherwise, he's staying here! Thank you so much, to everybody, for your help, prayers, support and caring! Gloria On Jun 6, 2005, at 11:10 AM, Hideyo Yamamoto wrote: Gloria! What a great news!

Re: Sam is FOUND!
Hmm... That makes me wonder... I'm sure you told this nice, cat friendly, (but, cat-less at the moment), woman, Sam's story, right? Did this woman seem like a suitable adopter except for the fact that she's living with her Aunt? Is the Aunt a cat-eater, or anything? If it looked like a good match, I might have pressed the well, you did find each other, maybe there's a reason, angle! Where is Sam going now? Back to the same foster parent? Nina Gloria B.

Re: Sam is FOUND!
He apparently had been one block or 2 west of the foster home, then someone tried to catch him and he ran east. So when we found him, he was, 2 blocks east of the foster home, roughly, and across a major road (Main Street in North Little Rock - occasional heavy traffic, not always). We just didn't expect him to cross that Main Street, so hadn't put out flyers in homes over there, just at the Mini Mart!

RE: Sam is lost - AC
No - not yet - sometimes hopeful, sometimes sad. Sigh. We've gotten great advice. Posting and passing out a flyer, and made a business card with his picture on it. Offering a reward, but not saying on the poster how much. Diane says she feels he's near water, and hiding. We've been looking. We've been out just about everyday, and get great help from the kids in the neighborhood. Got it narrowed down to a few houses nearby, where they've seen a Siamese cat, just haven't seen Sam.

RE: Sam is lost - AC
Oh.. poor baby, he is probably very scared - important thing is that kids do not try to find him or chase him as they may think they are helping but actually it will scare him more, and you don't really want Sam to move or get scared away and go some place else where it might not be safe. It's also helpful to put a flyer on an every single door of every single house instead of putting some on the posts on the street - every time I needed to look for a cat for myself or for someone, I did that way, and it has a much better success rate than putting them on post - then, you can make sure that they have your phone number with them at home and they usually keep the flyer for a while that way - it's a lot of work and it's definitely worth it - I had about 75% success rate of finding them this way. Also, on the flyer, if they see a cat similar to Sam, ask them to put the food out for him so that he will stick around - and you can perhaps set a trap there once you confirm that he is eating there - food availability is very so important for Sam so that he will feel safe and will stay the place. I would really like it if you can call Dr. Geri Ryan to find out about the meditation information - some might think it's stupid, but she said that it's very effective - I wrote down some, but I don't think I have all the wording correctly - Also, again please call Marta Williams if you need the 2nd opinion - she is very very good about finding a lost animal - she can actually sometimes, visualize exactly what path they took to get where they arrived - sorry for being pushy - but I wanted to make sure that Sam is OK and can be found asap - please keep us posted - I will pray. The meditation goes like You imagine a golden koyo (?), coming from your heart center, reaching out into the world, searching and for Sam. Latch onto like a magnet and guiding him safely home She suggested you meditate as many as you can (and your friends, too),she told me that it's amazing how well it works, and you can be re-united with your animals most amazing way. I just called the doctor to let me know of the missing wordings in the meditation in case you will use it. Kisses and hugs to Sam.

Thanks, Tamara - good point. Fortunately, the place where they've seen him is a very nice old estate-type place, with lots of space, and places to hide. One of our state senators lives there, and is understanding. I said, aren't you a city director or something - I know that went over well. But I apologized profusely, and he's been nice anyway. Just HOPING that Sam is not in the sewer - I will check on those. Lots of other kinds of houses around though - including vacant ones - very mixed neighborhood.

Yuk Sewer is a possibility unfortunately -Did Diane say that he seems like he is stuck some place - how did he describe his physical and emotional state, is he starving? Is he stuck??? They can often tell you those things as well - those things will be helpful, too. - One good thing is - Janet (Shepherd) really takes her time to really explore the situation to find a cat - (she asks all sorts of different questions to a cat to really find out where s/he is and how s/he get there) I once had to rescue a kitty who was stuck under a sewer - fortunately he was vocal enough that you heard him, because there was no way that anyone could ever see him since he was in the pipe under the sewer - -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gloria B.

RE: Sam is lost - AC
Great idea about asking AC to send an energy to bring him home they can send Sam an energy to tell him how to get home, sending a picture of how to get home (though, I think the problem might be that he does not think his foster family is not his home as he probably thinks of his former mother as a home, and I think thats why he has not gotten home yet. I think once he is spotted, if he is a skittish kitty ( which I get a feeling of), you might have to try to set a trap from him AFER establishing a feeding pattern every day for a while If someone calls you with any information, try to get all the detail as much as possible, time of the day (very important as cats do like to follow a pattern and you can then stake out to spot him, exact location, and if he runs away, find out exactly which location he came from and which direction he went, what was he doing when they saw him exactly? How did he seem?

If Sam is around and frightened, the continuous smell of you might help to draw him near one place over and over again. Leave food near the sock as well. Be consitant WHEN you renew the used sock and foodesp. if you can time it around the time you would normally be coming home from work...or when Sam would normally be fed. (Only problem...the food could draw others who might scare Sam off, so whether or not you leave the food is your call.) Again, if someone spots him close by, try walking to that area with your shoes on, taking them off there and straight walking home. Cats DO follow scent, and if Sam is lost and scared...your scent (or whoever he is closest to in the family) might just draw him home. Just becareful to stay away from roads and the ends of driveways as much as possible...try to pick a safe route home for him...then leave an outside light on and a screened window open so you can hear him if he comes calling. Lastly, tell the AC to try to send a visual to Sam what you are doing to help him find his way home. Animals communicate, it is believed, not through words but more like an autistic child would. Thoughts are pictures, not verbalizations. Try contacting Sam yourself, as he knows you and may be able pick up on you more so than the AC...may trust what he's receiving more. Sit or lay in a safe place...pref. one that you too spend quality time together in(turn off all verbal imputsthe tv, radio, phone...if music helps you relax...please only instrumental...songs that you will not automatically put words to...silence is best...if possible.)

Call to him with your mind, as you would if you were calling to him in the house for something he enjoyed. Picture him running up to you inside the house.

Near water can also mean trapped inside a wall near the water pipes, stuck on a roof with rain gutters, trapped in a damp basement, outside in the morning dew, outside in the rain, and any other various sources of water. In fact, it would be hard for him to not be near water to some extent, especially since he's lost, and has probably gotten a bit thirsty by now, and is most likely seeking out a drink if possible. I guess I'm just a critic, but really, near water doesn't mean a whole heck of a lot.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Gloria, I'm sending calming thoughts to Sam to find his way back to his foster mom. Poor baby, he's been through so much with his human getting sick and then losing his home. His foster mom must be so upset about him getting out too. Did he rush the door, or did she think he'd be okay in the yard? Does the sick older lady know he's disappeared, I hope not. Prayers to Sam.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Thanks to all. Foster mom is only 21, worked at a Vet clinic, nice girl. She was packing to move, I was to pick them up soon. She didn't think he'd go outside (!), as he was upstairs, and propped the door open to move boxes out. Then she didn't tell me for a few days, embarrassed. Yes, I was very upset, told her she should have called ASAP! No, the lady doesn't know. I'm going to tell her son, but we probably won't tell her. She's 70, had knee surgery, and something a bout it (anesthetic) disoriented her mind somewhat - she moved in with a daughter. Probably doesn't need to know. A very mixed neighborhood - rentals, businesses, homes. People are nice, we've talked to them and passed out flyers. SIgh.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Gloria, I read about lost pets once Jersey didn't show up almost 3 days. 1. Cats are getting accustomed to their homes. I have read about cats that crossed 100- 150 km to get back to their first house. So, how far the house of the old lady is from the foster home? Cats have perfect intuition and it is possible that he might get back there. 2. If the cat had a favoutite toy take that toy and make a noise with it when searching. 3. On the flyers put a reward but do not specify the amount. 4. It is possible that somebody is feeding that pet. Ask for people in the neighbourhood that have cats, dogs or love to take care of animals. Jersey had some fans in our neighbourhod that fed him from time to time. 5. Cats might hide in all kinds of unexpected places. Search everywhere- even look beneath the cars, garbage containers (there is food there), etc. 6. Presumably, being an inside cat he is not far away from the foster home. It is very important to let me know what is the physical distance b/n the lady's house and the foster home. 7. To make sure he is alive, call the DMV or the MVB. If I cat is hit by car they take it. 8. very important: Once he is hungry he might come back by himself. Tell the people in the foster home to keep an eye at anytime. I beieve this is the most possible outcome. 2-3 days, even a week later he might get home. Ok Keep me in touch...and Good luck.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Gloria, When talking with people just say that he is 17. The breed is expensive and some people might want to make money selling the cat BUT if he is 17 years old they will know that the price will not be high. So, if someone is taking care of him he might prefer to get the reward rather than trying to sell it. Again, I believe that he is going to be back to the lady's house ot the foster home.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
You know, I will never understand what people are thinking when they opt to separate loved ones and their pets. If they care about this old lady, and she's gone to live with a daughter, (that's what you said right?), then why couldn't they make room for her kitty? People are really frustrating sometimes. I sure hope Sam has found a goodhearted soul to help him out. Nina Gloria B. Lane wrote: Thanks, Stan - that's a useful and great list. The former home is 5.7 miles north of the foster home.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Gloria, I think he is going to be back at the foster home because he has been an inside cat all his life and he will be afraid to hike around. Cats are territorial and he is not willing to enter other cat's territory. He can be in radius of half a mile around the foster home. That is suggestion N1. It is possible though to get to the lady's house. 6 miles are not so many for cats. Distrinute flyers at around both places. Talk with people. Does he have an tag ID? Even if he has, make sure you put downthe phone number clearly. Make sure you put a nice clear photo of Sam. if you see kids playing somewhere talk withthem also. They remember such kind of information and they spend a lot of time playingoutside. I am pretty sure he is safe because noone has any benefit of hurting the cat. the point is to find him. don't give up. sometimes cats return to their owners after weeks and months. Good luck and plase be very detailed in the search. Look everywhere. How long has he been missing? How long has he been iving in the foster home? Stan From: "Gloria B.

Re: Sam is lost - add to Candlelight Service
Gloria, I don't know how your schedule is. Can you try to take someone and search together around the building of the foster house- basemet, etc. One week is not a long time but since he was not back, it means that he is getting food and waterfrom somewhere. Some people leave food in front of their houses for any wild animals they feed. Are there houses around the foster home, just go and talk with people. Good luck again and don't give up.

So, if someone is taking care of him hemight prefer to get the reward rather than trying to sell it.Again, I believe that he is going to be back to the lady's house otthe foster home.StanFrom: "Gloria B.
