Re: [Felvtalk] High Fever
I have read that rubbing alcohol on the pads of the feet can bring down fevers, but I do not know if this is legitimate, but may be worth looking into to help with the fever. Good luck with your furbaby.

Re: [Felvtalk] High Fever
Yes, Isabella had a high fever when we first rescued her. As I recall, we used antibiotics. I couldn't find my notes quicklyI do know her fever finally came down. Eventually she was on maintenance prednisilone and a pain killer. And now she is only on interferon and has gone from 8-12 lbs. She looks and feels great! Good luck and if I find more on Bella's treatment, I will forward it.

Re: [Felvtalk] High Fever
My Junior ran fevers as well. In the early stages he was running a temperature as high as 106.5. Imunlan was not available then to my knowlegde he was on Immunoregulin. It too is an immune booster, so my thoughth would be the Imulan should be helping this. Initially he also received fluids.
