My Annie was not positive for the 4 years her fist owner had her, same vet.
Then when her owner had to go into hospice and she was left alone in her
trailer for 3 weeks, then brought to the vet's office in a cardboard box and
then sent home to my house with 2 new people and 1 new cat, that is w
WHEN YOU WERE THERE, COULD YOU STAY AT THE CAT HOUSES OR DID YOU STAY AT A
NEARBY MOTEL? IT WOULD BE GREAT IF I COULD RETIRE THERE WITH MY BABIES AND BE
WITH THEM TO THE END. I WOULD NOT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CHANGING BOXES, ETC.

I do believe that Stress has a lot to do with the FELV becoming active and
secondary infections doing more damage. My Nitnoy had been feral, lost a tail
to a raccoon just days before I found her and then was afraid of the other cats
because she was so small and they were so big. She grew less
Lee, I agree with you on the negative feelings. Same with people. Worrying
and fretting never did any good.

I think that at one point or another, we all think we have it all under
control. I have begun to realize that perhaps I am here to provide a home,
food and what care I can for them for the time I have them whether it is long
or short. I take them in, love them for whatever time I have them. H
I refused transfusions for Nitnoy because it would have meant leaving her at
the er vet's overnight in a cold, unfamiliar place by herself. She was so ill,
I could not do that to her. I think that leaving her there away from her home
would have done her more harm than good. As it was, I could

Catherine, I can tell you love Meowko very much, and blood transfusions will
keep her going for awhile as will Epogen, but please think of what you are
putting her through. Blood transfusions are an invasive painful proceedure
as well as very expensive for you. I do not mean to upset you, but Meo
That is very encouraging Lee. I will try hard to stop worrying about
my 12 cats who were exposed to the virus.

Margo, most of my cats are special needs also. Either they have behavioral
problems (litter box issues mostly) or physical issues - one tripod, one half
blind, several old, one allergic to something we can't figure out but she loses
her fur in patches, then grows it back and another has seizure
Dear Catherine,
It certainly sounds as if treatment for the anemia has been at least partly successful. A cat that energetic is likely to be improved, numbers wise. In my experience, when Epogen works, it is a lifesaver. I hope it will continue to work for Meowko for a very
Thank you all very much for the advice and thoughts!
Re Lorrie on Anemia: Thank you Lorrie for you advice. I don't want to lose
Meowko but understand beyond some point prolonging Meowko's life would be
cruel.While we have prepared for the worst (after reading suggestions
from this list, we ha
I think I agree with you. This is just so new, and was quite a shock. When it comes to the cats he's been with, I do understand that, as my Vet put it, "that ship has sailed". It's the need to add a cat to them that has me flummoxed. The more I "learn" (as there are so many
