Expect an uphill battle with your vet. Keep Kokonut on the Doxy and
Prednisolone, but add the Winstrol at 2 mg a day. I obtained the Winstrol in
quick-dissolve tablets and Ardy got it in a liquid in salmon-flavour. Either
way, the vet will have to order it from a compounding pharmacy.
Hi Everyone
I definitely agree with Ardy. I think that often, valuable time is lost while
we are either given no options at all by the vets, or options that are not
proven to succeed. Also, there is often an initial “crisis” of some kind, that
heralds the start of the virus getting an upper
Hi Rachel
Truth be told, I would much rather be with my cats than working well into the
night at my office. I am awaiting the arrival of a new baby who I am told is
palliative. She has cancer. I am going to do my best to make her happy and
comfortable, but I have never simply accepted a death

The biochemistry results are just fine, but it is clear that the haematology is
showing a reduction in all three of the cell lines: red cells, white cells and
platelets. The most affected right now is the platelet line. Luckily, nothing
immediate will happen with a low normal platelet

It is a slow process. Once you get a bit of food into Kokonuts, she will
hopefully start feeling better. Keep feeding her small amounts at multiple
times of the day, if you can. Ask the vet to give her subcutaneous fluids or to
show you how to do it at home (t is pretty easy). She is
It sounds just perfect to me. I am so glad you shared this with us. I have
nothing but respect for you. It's not everyone who can find their calling and
then just go for it, especially when that calling comes from love and caring
and has nothing to do with financial gain only the peace of mind
I think the best thing about Felvtalk is that you get answers form many people
with diffrent experiences. You get a chance to compare and make your own
decision and the advice is always given in the best interet of you and your
cat, not something they are selling. All you have to do is
When I brought Tucker home from work he had an infection on his leg and I took
him to get treated, he had a chip so we found out he didn't need shots for six
months. When I took him for shots she me if I wanted the felv vaccine because I
used to let him go outside too. We tested him first and
I really feel blessed because my vet said 2 choices, euthansia or keep Annie,
treat her and hope. I would have walked out the door and never returned if he
only had one solution. Find another vet.

Hi Kat, I was born in Morristown, "Mew" Jersey.
I only have photos of the outside of my sanctuary and the grassy lot
next door where I have a small, heated, building for ferals, and a

That was pretty much the scenario that got my Gribble diagnosed. He had a temp of 107+ (that's as high as the thermometer went) and a WBC count of 2.8. He had had bloodwork done recently when he blocked, and the Vet had the go back and test fro FeLV/FIV. I'm pretty sure it was the stress of the
Every cat is different.
I know people who have syringe fed their cat for years, I have never had to go
more than a few weeks of straight syringe feeding, but there was often a longer
tine of serious "encouragement" . The Assisted feeding group will have more
specific information.
When will
Thank you so much for your encouragement . She went to the vet last Monday May
9th -2016 and now it's Sunday I wanted to post her blood results
Items HCT =19.6 low
WBC =5.1 low
PLT =173
Her temperate was 101.7 today Sunday 05/15/2016
No fever :) still no appetite and weak . Syringe feeding
Hello,
If I can jump in on the website idea, I believe that would help people,
especially people like me who had no experience with FeLV. Suddenly you are
told one of your kitties has FeLV virus, and you are being told there are no
options other than euthanasia. My vets even wanted me to go
Hi Olivia,
So sorry your baby isn't feeling good. Syringe feeding in very important are
you using the ad hills food? I know it's hard to get a lot of food in and this
is high calorie. When I was syringe feeding Tucker I took him to get fluids
under the skin a couple of times and my vet only
Lorrie,
That is awesome! And YOU are awesome. I understand why you can't do the more
expensive treatments for all of those kitties. I am sure it is hard just to
keep them all fed! You are a kitty savior, no doubt.

I have googled you, you are the only one on here that I can put a face to a
name! Can we post pictures when we send messages?
Yes, not all lawyers are bad. Lol I am glad you do something you believe in and
that is fulfilling and helps people. Probably makes all of the hours worth it.
That and
