Kerry,
I have not been reading posts regularly, and just learned of
Flavia. I am so sorry. it is so strange the way we seem to deal with the same
things-- me with lymphoma over and over and you with inexplicable anemia.
I would try Immuno-regulin too. The article on this group's web page
Hi Kerry,
I'm sorry to hear about the anemia. I would want to rule out hemobart just to be sure. I hope Flavia gets to come home first thing. Be sure to give some extra pats to Katyis too!
take care,

Yes, I'm always amazed by badly behaved animal clinic people. I felt bad
about taking poor Flavia there. It wasn't what I expected--at all.

I have been giving Denosyl and Milk Thistle to Bruce. You do not need a prescription for it anymore.

I feed Coebeio the hairball formula. She has horrible allergies, but it seems to be easy on her stomach and she likes it. Plus when Quintapus was alive, I bought it because it was low in phosphorous and he had CRF. Coey also eats the chicken, mixed in from time to time to keep her intere

The only problem with Triumph is that it has a high phosphorous content. (NOT good for older kitties, or cats prone to kidney problems.) Just an FYI.

I've been up most of night with Flavia. I noticed she wasn't

Then she defecated outside the box 2 or 3 times. I stayed with her
