Laurie, if the kittens were in so much pain, why didn't you end their pain
sooner? I told my little kitties right from the start, if they got to a point
where they were miserable, I would help them over the rainbow bridge, no matter
how heartbreaking it would be for me. I can't let them
Alice, we did euthanize. It was excruciating because they had survived a
year ~ though small they were healthy. They went downhill quickly as cats
often do, esp FeLV+ cats. By the slowly die off, I meant first one died and
then another and then the mama. Last night we had to make a decision to
The one thing worse to me is being born only to die in a shelter, having
that life then taken away from you.
If you are going to keep them, that's another story.

It is so hard to deal with these things. Thank God they have people
like you to care about them during their last while on earth. It is
so much better to die in loving hands than in a cold cage. I don't
know if they still use gas to kill in shelters or not but that was
gruesome. Even
I volunteer with a Louisiana shelter (am a remote volunteer) and spend time
there when I go down--It kills the staff to have to euthanize and they do

Hello! I'm new to this list. My husband and I have two FeLV positive cats.
Bo is four, and Seven was a year old in June. We have them both on interferon
and have regular well-cat visits with our vets. So far, Bo and Seven are in
good health.
I have read a lot recently about diets for cats
I fed Dixie Louise Primal Raw mixed with organic veggies that were
high in iron and/or vitamin C. From the China scare she never had
food with grains. Until a very few days before she left this world
she was very healthy and happy. She saw a holistic vet frequently and
a regular vet as
Welcome to the list! I must admit, I feed pretty ordinary
food. Would do better if I didn't do rescue and consequently have
rescue cats. But I have 2 FELV cats that I acquired from Oklahoma,
and they're over 10. I've had them for a few years, the previous
owner had them for quite a few.
Gloria I am going to follow your advice.
My kitten is roughly 2+ years. She was highly symptomatic and recovered
