I agree! I've had some awful results with tranquilizers. The cats become terrified and feel out of control which adds to their fear. Lorrie On 09-17, Natalie wrote: If I may offer some advice, don't sedate! My vet hates it because you never know how any cat may react...cats get more

Hello Everyone, I am writing to you all in hopes that I may reach a broader group of wonderful people. Over 6 months ago I rescued 2 kittens that are both negative for fiv/felv but had the calisi virus and were scheduled for euthanasia. They were from different litters and grouped together.

This is a cat that failed in his last attempt to make it to Best Friends because of how poorly he handled transport. He was 1 of 3 cats supposed to be headed out there and they decided they needed to work with a vet to find a better solution for getting him through long travel. The biggest issue

We have two cats at our house that had Calici when we rescued them and it should not be a lifelong stigma because once they are over it and continue to get an FVRCP vaccination every year there should be no issues. Also, if they are adopted into a household with other cats and those cats are

What kind of a vet would suggest euthanasia of cats that once had a cold? With vets like that, who needs enemies! The same goes for having a cold that would be a corona virus, which often makes diagnosis of FIP hard because it's also a corona virus.OMG - I have NEVER, ever, heard of anything like

I have transported several real scaredy cats by plane, in the cabin. I always used a harness with a leash on them and a pillow case over them when I took them out of the carrier to go through security. I merely picked up the pillow case, with the open end together in a bunch, leash hanging

Hi  My year and a half FELV pos Choe is suddenly as of last night not eating.   She seems hungry and runs to the bowl, but then just looks at it and doesn't seem to like what's in the bowl!  She seems a little growly too at the other cats.  And she keeps wanting to go outside for some reason but

I used Nutra-Cal for my Felv kitty, Prancer that just passed away. He lived for over 9 years! I ordered it from my Vet or Entirely Pets.com. Also, I used Interferon for many years and this was only $25.00 for a bottle, the bottle lasted for about 2 months for his size (10 lbs). Prancer
