Dear Kim, Your little baby just couldn't do it any more. That's all. Her little precious life just expended itself. All the while she did have life in her, she had the warmth of your loving touch and the softness of your lips against her too, as surely you kissed her a thousand times or

Hi Stacy, One of my negative cats has EGC on his belly. He gets raised, red plaques and licks constantly. I had no luck with topical creams, fish oil, or allergy shots. We had him on prednisolone to control it for quite a while, because it worked and it was what we could afford. Unfortunately,

Mike, thank you for your insight!   I printed your e-mail and will keep it on my desk.   Although I haven't had a pet loss in over a year, I do have pets and when that future day comes around when I am, again, in that awful pain I can look at it and be comforted. Thanks. Sally J. Nordstrom

Hi: I have been giving him unscented salmon oil daily to see if it helps.  I am trying to get him into a dermatologist at the ER vet clinic.  I have to wait for them to call me back tomorrow.  My vet said I should see what they say and then we have to treat him with the steroids or whatever

Hi Natalie: Thank you for the suggestion. My vet actually told me about the black salve (neoplasene from buck mountain I believe) but his cytology report came back sort of inconclusive and consistent with feline eosinophilic granuloma complex).  So I'm not sure if those remedies/treatments

We don't know - but since Graviola has always been such a well-known anticancer herb, and FeLV could be considered a form of cancer, I suppose, I don't see why it shouldn't. I am going to try it on my two FeLV asymptomatic cats starting in the new year. The salve works on external tumors/skin

The tonic works not only on cancer - it's great for overall health! The black salve would still be a good thing to try, it won't attack any other cells! But I'm not sure about the one you mention, there are so many copies out thereand expensive, too! For tough skin, try a much thinner

Hi Stacy,I have used Neoplasene and would never use it on a symptomatic FeLV cat. It is also very hard on the liver as the liver has to process all the toxins. A very informative group where you can get info is -

The cancer cells that are killed have to be processed through the liver. Neoplasene (black salve) is highly effective but caution must be used. Stacy, if you're considering using it please join that forum. Everyone on there uses it and would be of great help.El Date: Sun, 7 Nov 2010 18:38:59
