I absolutely agree with it - I have had kitties who were still running
around like nothing is wrong when she had a temp of 105.5 - whereas I
have had kitties who did not feel good at all and hiding at temp of
103... it all depends on kitties..

Hi Michelle,
I am sorry I couldn't respond to this sooner. If you remember, Bandy had
recurring fevers for well over a year...often as high as 106+.. After awhile
of taking him to the vet, I had a prescription of .75mg dex for use at home...I
would give him 1/2 pill at times and the temp
Thank you. I'll call the vet about that today.

This is an email I got. I've been thinking about how to respond for a while
and still can't figure it out.
iHi,
This may seem odd, but I figured you guys would
probably know best. I want to be a cat owner. I'm
27, a professional with no life in sight, and I love
cats. I grew up with cats,

I would not adopt to him if he dumped the cat. I am just trying to figure
out how to answer his question - is being lonely a good reason to adopt a
cat? I guess my question is what happens if he gets a girlfriend and is no
longer lonely, is the cat going to end up ignored?

I'm inclined to agree. Suggest that she volunteer or foster for a rescue
rather than adopt.
I've lived in the Bay Area since 1978, and lived in SF for the first 25 of
those years. I've lost and found a lot of jobs in that time, moved from
apartment to apartment, spent part of my 20s on

Why not ask him to foster? Short term care will allow him to know if he really
wants a cat or not...or can afford one. I'd be leary to adopt one of mine to
him...but wouldn't rule it completely outpeople do and can grow. (I've
been unemployed and know how scarry that can be...sometimes
This sounds like a wonderful idea. The person sounds kind of lonely,
and volunteering would get them out of the house and among people, as
well as among cats. They would have an outlet for their love of cats,
it would be doing a lot of cats a lot of good, and maybe the mother
would forgive them.
volunteer at the shelter what a good answer. Our local bird rescue requires
that all adopters
put in a number of volunteer hours before being allowed to adopt. I've never
given up an
animal, and I detest it when people do, but I think that with the right
screening, this should not
preclude

Michelle,
I guess there are some benefits of not being able to stay as in touch
with the list as much as I'd like. It's nice to tune in just in time to
have things getting better with our little Lucy out of danger. Someone
mentioned how her recovery points to the fact that she's able to fend
Ha! You left out the ever popular, We're going to be staying with my
mil while our house is being renovated and she hates cats so we need to
get rid of him asap! Did I mention that he fights with other cats and
hides under the bed whenever we have guests in the house?

I would make her fill out a application, find out how long she's had her
job, get references, ask them about her stability, etc. Then, yes, I would
adopt to her, BUT, I would need to contact the rescue she got that last cat
from to be SURE she did indeed return the cat to them, and in good health.
It does sound like this person is in need of some unconditional love and
a boost of self esteem. The fact that they are looking for advice is a
good sign, and I would do my best to not be judgmental over past
mistakes. Heaven knows we've all made mistakes that we're not proud
of. I

Well, I did email this person back, and they say they don't want to foster
because they would have to keep giving the kitty back and it was too hard
the last time to do that. It was a good idea though. I do agree that not
everyone is cut out to foster.

I was taking them so frequently last night because it was so high and the ER
told me that if it stopped going down at any point I needed to bring her in.
I've taken it a total of 3 times since last night, once this am and twice
this afternoon. I will not take it again for a few hours.
Well, they managed to give up a pet last time so it wasn't THAT hardOK,
I'll be nice.
Any chance they don't understand the concept of fostering? If it's a match
they have first dibs to adopt and they get to make a huge difference while
looking for the right match.

Kelley,
I like Tamara's suggestion of fostering, that seems nice and probationary.
Don't fault the person for seeking companionship out of loneliness, even
depression, he/she seems to have hit on a solution that has the potential to
be mutually beneficial to them and the animal.
It seems that
