Wow, Kathryn...what a rough weekend-for the both of you! It sounds like it

Wow! What an improvement in the weight! Bless you
for taking care of this little furbaby. I know he is
SOO thankful for you guys! You might consider
giving him probiotics to supply him with the good

Baytril can be given as an intermuscular injection if your not
squeamish about giving shots. That is how I gave them to Buddie when
she was on it. I don't know if it can be made into a transdermal gel
but you could ask your vet.

Dee,
I very, very strongly recommend giving him Immuno-Regulin (See
articles on www.felineleukemia.org
website). It helped my Patches recover from pneumonia quickly. I think I
only got her 1 shot. With Ginger it took 2 to get rid of a bad URI. Others have
had good results with it too. It
I'm not qualified to answer many of your questions - but I can't help but
think that the significant weight gain is a very good sign.
I always try to get liquid meds when I can since we have the technique down

readily--talk to your vet about that

First of all, I just wanted to take a moment to send my condolences to
everyone that have lost their cherished little ones. They leave their
little tiny paw prints in every heart that they touch while here on this

He's probably getting Winstrol to stimulate his
kidneys into making rbc's. It's great that he's
gained weight! I don't think the interferon can hurt;
in retrospect, I would have given it to Cricket had I
known what I know about it now. Glad he's a happy
kitty Cindy!

I just wanted to let everyone know that Smokey is
still doing good. He is still getting 2 injections
per week of equistim. He has gained some weight he is
up to 6lbs.4oz. from 5lbs.8oz. I am still giving him
the Pet Tinic and he has been going to the vet every 2
weeks to get a steroid injection.

Hey Cindy,
Equistim or something like that is probably what the
vet called it. It is the same thing as ImmunoRegulin.
Is your kitty getting the IR injected into a vein in
the arm/leg or are you just giving kitty the injection
in the skin (like sub-Q)?

The vet fixed the shots for me and gave me enough for
2 weeks. She doesn't call it immuno-regulin but I
can't think of the name of it but when I mentioned
immuno-regulin she said that it was the same thing. I
can look tonight and tell you tomorrow. She didn't
say anything about IV.

Are you giving these shots IV or sub-q? One person said she gave them
sub-q, but the bottle says it has to be IV...

I took Smokey to a new vet on Wednesday and she got
his temp. back to normal and started him
immuno-regulan injections. She wants him to have a
shot for 4 days in a row and then 2 a week. He has
had 2 shots now and she is letting me give him the
