I use mane and tail groom, for horses, with my cats with ringworm. I'm not sure about the ingredients or using it on immune compromised cats. Yall are teaching me a lot about that. I think it is worth checking out the mane and tail groom to make sure there is nothing in it that will hurt

Hi Brenda! It's wonderful to hear from you despite the sad circumstances... :( I'm sure Miss Kitty is receiving a fine homecoming from her babies! That is my only consolation when Sleepypants must leave us...that he will be reunited with his mom and brothers and the family will be whole again!

I'm really sorry you had to go through this. It was probably the red, and he meant 7% packed cell volume (PCV). Just wondering, did the vet suggest any type of treatment or just euthanasia? Yes, the vaccination is not 100% effective all the time. Kris http://www.spazstory.zoomshare.com

The thing is.. at our shelter they test cats/kittens on intake. Then those cats and kittens are exposed to other cats and kittens. There aren't enough cages to truly keep the cats separated. We also have an 'open' cat room with no cages. The cats are NEVER retested after 90 days. If they
