The south is MUCH different from New York State. It is much cheaper to live here and there are correspondingly fewer services. I could never dream of having a lot of stuff they have in NYS. On Wed, Jun 1, 2016 at 7:12 PM, ROBERT CHAPEL wrote: > > > > Having a hard time

Many times a "slight positive" is a test that isn't correctly read. I can't say it is all the time. I had a kitty who tested "slight positive" who came up negative on retest. No way would I separate the babies, if she is positive and they are going to be infected they're likely already

[Felvtalk] Coco sneezing blood

Hey folks Coco went through a bad time last year where she would not eat, dropped a lot of weight. We got her started eating again and she has gained 1/2 pound - from 6.0 to 6.5 (she is a small cat, but I'd rather see her at 7). Anyway, she is now sneezing blood. I took her in to the vet

Hi Guys, First, please forgive the blank email I sent. I would like to request to post a fundraiser here. I know none of us have money, but I'm hoping if this fundraiser gets shared it will get to some folks with money. My Toodles is in the hospital and has been since Thurday. I'm

I personally do not do lysine AT ALL. It was only ever really recommended for herpes, there's recent evidence it doesn't even work for that, and it reduces something else they need (can't remember right now).

Lost my little Coco last night. It was sudden - she was playing and running around before I went to sleep and when I woke up she was gone. Probably better for her that way as she didn't have to suffer through a long protracted illness. Sure does hurt though. Kelley
